English Amiga Board - View Single Post - Getting CF card set-up as a real Amiga HD

I can't get rid of the PC partition problem after spending umpteen hours at it. I believe I'm suppose to erase the disk but I've no idea how! (tried format in XP and in Winuae). I've also add the disksaftey command to WINuae.exe via the 'Run' command on XP's tool bar (afterwards WINuae boots up! is that right?)

The CF card is 64mb. I also tried the card in my A600 (fitted to 44pin CF reader) but got the 'Unit is not a disk' (Type 7). I also tried a second and third CF cards with the same results; with WINuae and the 600 (32mb and 128mb).

Any advice would be great

I've posted the following picture's, as picture's speak louder than words

Apologies about the odd picture shape

Format as 'FAT' under XP3

WINuae configuration:

About to select HDtoolbox in WINuae:

CF is ID

l:file error

Same on 3.1 Install
