At this point its time to try a different distro. Grab fedora 13 or 14 in a
live cd and boot it up. See if it finds both drives. If so please post back
the /boot/grub/grub.conf or menu.1st file. There can be two places to define
where / is. One is global the other is specific per boot kernel. I suspect
the later is wrong as it loads a kernel.

Also try reinstall with windows drive fully disconnected and set for boot
drive only new Linux drive. Be sure to fully reformat the drive in the
process.
