There's nothing about adding another hard drive that should cause other things to fail, unless you ended up accidentally booting a different OS off that other hard drive. Does it work if you remove the addded drive? Yes yes it worked very fine when I removed the added drive ... I could found the reason and could solve the problem .. I'd a corrupted FC6 installation on the added drive .. so the filesystem there had the same LABEL so it got mounted as "/" instead of the right one on the main hard disk .. This is another problem ... why when there is duplicated LABELs of filesystems it mounts the last one it finds? it should mount the first filesystem with that LABEl not the last one ... That would be a mkinitrd issue - assigning there. Make sure both the selector jumpers and cables to new disks are properly set to recognize primary and secondary and boot selection. Yes of course, it was ... The problem is that when you mount the root filesystem by LABEL in /etc/fstab and that there are two filesystems with the same label fedora will mount the last one in order not the 1st one ...
