I pulled the RAID card, and moved the remaining SATA card from SATA4 to SATA1. |

I then was able to successfully install Mandriva Linux (quickest distro to test) with no grub startup problems. |

By proceeding step-by-step with reinstalling the RAID card, I should be able to figure out whether having the SATA main drive not on SATA1 or the RAID card broke it, and hopefully get a multi-drive system running without having to purchase another SATA compatible drive. |
