Finding a second hard drive:
Hello everyone: This is my first time in here and for me Linux is really a new experience. I have a few questions ( actually a lot of questions but will ask two for now) and hope I am not out of order asking them in one post. My first question is I have 2 hard drivers in my computer a Master and a Slave and in Windows I know how to fine them but in Linux I am lost and could anyone tell me how to find the second drive if it can be done? Second, I just installed a Cannon Scanner and would like to know if I have to install any software or drivers to make it work? Thank You for any help and everyone have a great day. Bye Don;)

Code:
sudo cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
which also works.
Hello Hal343 and thank you for the info. OK I did what you said and not sure if the information you need but it says I have Version 9.04 along with all that other stuff. I tried a couple of things like when I started my computer I pressed TAB and it showed there was a Master and a Slave hard drive and then somehow I got into I guess the BIOS where I had a list of choices which the first one was boot normal. The other stuff I had no clue what they meant. I just cannot figure why it's so hard to fine my drivers. I have tried clicking on just about every thing is "Appplications and Places" hoping somewhere it will show my main drive and the slave for I can but data on the second hard drive. Anyway I am still lost on how to find these drives. I love this Operation System but and will keep trying and would appreciate any other help. Thank You donnor.:sad:
