Gary Dickman resolved the issue with an install disc. OS X 4.0, Tiger, install discs have a menu item, Utilities, which includes select start up disk options. My Mac has found its way!
For further reference, most NewWorld Macs have the Startup Manager which is accessed by holding the Option key at the startup tone. It will show any functioning and available boot volumes on the system and allow you to choose what to boot. Once booted it's dead simple to go into the Prefs and set the main HDD as the regular boot volume. This is very useful for booting your Linux YaBoot partition if the system got reset to the OS X volume by an update or something. ;)
