You have to install the GRUB bootloader onto the drive that the BIOS
boots from. It sounds like you've installed it to the second (Linux)
drive, and the PC BIOS is booting from the first one (continuing to boot
Windows, as it previously did).
Hey, thanks for the ideas. The funny thing is that the bootloader was installed on hda, which is the Windows drive (Linux is on hdb). So, it should be in the right place.
