FSCK and Internal Slave Drive Problems

Is there a way to get fsck to recognize a 200gig internal on the slave bus?
It seems that fsck only recognizes the startup drive.
Stellar Phoenix shows all the files are there but I cannot mount the drive through Disk Utility and I can't afford $99 right now.


Thanks in advance.

Leopard 10.5.8 on a MDD G4 1.25GHz
 
I think the Mac doesn't treat hard disks as master and slave. Check Other World Computing for instructions on setting your jumpers so a Mac recognizes the disk correctly.
 
TechTool called the bus a slave.
But then I think it was TechTool that may have caused the MDB problem in the initial stages. I do not think that the version was compatible with Leopard.
In any event, I got a hold of Disk Warrior.
H-A-L-A-L-U-J-A-H! Disk Warrior saved the day.
Rebuilt the directory in a matter of minutes and I'm on my way.

Thanks for the reply!
