No. :(

The bios sees the drive.  I get a bunch of errors on boot when booting 
from /dev/hda and it's /dev/hdc.  Further, 'fdisk /dev/hdc' returns an 
error (can't recall the exact message) indicating /dev/hdc does not exist.

dd if=/dev/hdc of=...  returns a similar error as fdisk.

Don't know that I want to run fsck on a fat filesystem... ????
