Primary HD Choking, Second HD Vanished

After a recent crash my Quicksilver (OS 10.2) wouldn't reboot. Eventually I was able to boot off the Jag install disc and run the Disc Utility, but now my second HD (120GB) is no where to be found.



I'm still having problems booting from my primary drive, and have to boot from the CD and run Disc Utility each time first. I'd like to just copy everything I need over to my secondary drive and then do a clean install on my primary drive, but nothing I do will make the second drive mount. Any suggestions?



Also, should I invest in a copy of Norton's or some other disc utility instead of booting off the Jag install disc?

    everyone here recommended DiskWarrior, go for it.



    I personally use norton and techtool dlx. have had pretty good results combining them.
