Hi all,

I have got a scsi hard drive in my PC and would like to format and install workbench etc on it so i can put it back in my A2000.

When i start up WinUAE, i add the drive from the drop down list of available Hard Drives and try to format it under HDTools.

It tells me that it is an unknown type so i try to change drive type. I try to read the configuration but it tells me it doesnt accept SCSI inquiry commands.

By the way, i have formatted the drive using the tools that come with the scsi card, that was the only way i could get the drive to show up under winuae.

Can anyone tell me how to format the drive with an amiga file system?

Thanks.
