The large intestine has, as its major function, the removal of water from the digestive tract at the end of the digestive process. (The small intestine is the primary absorber of nutrients from out of the digested material.) Without a large intestine, you'd have a much more liquid bowel emission. And you'd need to drink more water, too. It's not the best deal in the world, but it is something that can be lived with and just requires "management" on the part of an individual who has, due to accident or disease, lost the large or a large portion of the large intestine. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the large intestine.
Most all of the water and some minerals would be absorbed from the undigested food, chyme, and it would turn hard, like feces. When these hard and dry lumps of undigested food would pass through the small intestine they would not be digested or absorbed, which is what the small intestine is supposed to do, and since the small intestine is where most of your digestion and absorption takes place, basically you would starve to death.
If you did not have either a large or small intestine, your digestive system would have problems. You would have to wear a colostomy bag (worn outside the body) which collects waste.

The duodenum is only the first portion of the small intestine. The small intestine comprises the duodenum, the jejunum, and the ileum. Following the ileum of the small intestine is the ileocecal valve, which separates the small intestine from the large intestine. The duodenum is separated from the stomach by the pyloric sphincter.
The Small Intestine is connected to the Large Intestine and the Pancreas.

Food is passed from the stomach, and it goes through the long tube called the small intestine. In the villi it absorbs nutrients and sends it to the bloodstream, the small intestine is the biggest part of the digestive system, and the food is send to the large intestine where it is made into excrement.
