At this point - I feel you have a failed install and or broken FBSD. The
WD 80 gig drive should be of zero issue. I use 2 WD SATA 80 gigger w/out
issues.
If your drive is partitioned correctly - GAG will and does boot it well.

My bootup is similar except the fact that I use 2 drives and not one
that is partitioned (eventhough I have done the same just recently on 1
WD 80 gig split up in 2 40 gig parts for Windows and FBSD).

As mentioned many times in this list, seek the handbook for dual booting.=

To err is human -- to blame it on someone else is
even more human.
