Amiga 2000HD Hard disk - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

I'm not sure about the problem you're having with HDToolbox, but what type
of HD controller is in your 2000HD? I remember having problems similar to
what you're experiencing (old Mac SCSI drive not recognized by OS) when I
was using a 2090a in my 2000. When I switched to a 2091, I had no further
problems.

I think the 2091 was standard in the 2000HD, but it might be worth checking
to see if someone has swapped in an old controller...

Just a thought. Good luck.

Well, I know about HDToolbox, but there's one problem.

When I try to run HDToolbox, it always says "Driver not installed" in the
box that is supposed to contain drive information. The HDSetup program
will get to the point where it is supposed to start formatting &
partitioning the drive, then just drops back to WorkBench with no
messages.

Any ideas for this one?

Thanks,
Kevin
