Kind Regards

Wondering if Evesham Micro's just used scsi.device?

I could be wrong but unlikely they had their own such as GVPscsi etc.

Can you not address the hard drive with HDToolbox or such?

As a matter of interest, what version of Kickstart is your A500 using?

It uses Evesham.device (note the capital letter E, device names are case sensitive).

But it also gives you a bootable DH0 spanning the whole drive if it is not yet partitioned.

Nice one Thomas. I stand corrected....

@ OP

At least you should be able to set up the Hard Drive using HD Toolbox by changing the software tool type.

I had two ADFs sitting on my PC HD, not sure what the original archive name was (or where that file is), but I zipped them up and uploaded to The Zone.
