Which drives were master/slave on what IDE channels prior to adding the third drive, and where in that mess was the third drive added? Remember if you insert a drive your boot parameters would change. hd(0) may no longer be hd(0), etc... /dev/hda may no longer be /dev/hda. If you don't rearange the drives so the numbering is correct from the way it was you'll have to change your boot loader params and your /etc/fstab configuration...

  Win98 was Master, RH Slave both on IDE 1.  I did another Install of RH on my 3rd HD and put it on IDE1.  

The previous Installation now is on IDE2 along with the HD that had Win98.
Win98 was hda, and RH was hdb by the way.

  Dont get me wrong, everything works just fine. I just need to mount the other 2 HDs and am all set.

 I am just confused on how the KDE and NVIDIA drives are now present on my previous install.


 You all must think am losing it, frankly so am I.

Well, stuff just doesn't appear like that so yes, I think you are losing it.
