That looks like a truely ancient Fedora ?
Yes.
You also want to avoid two disks on one cable as the IDE interface
only
allows one of them to be active at a time so its a good way to cripple
performance.
I'm aware of that. However, since one of them is mounted as /home,
and the other as /, I rarely use both discs at once. Of course,
swap does get involved with that.
