SCSI Hard Drive Problems

Smiley · 03 May 2006, 19:01

Ok, so I have a Supra Wordsync 2000 and a 1gb scsi HD. This is the process I went through:

Turn auto-boot jumper off

Boot with supraboot disk.

Load SupraFormat

Set drive parameters as follows: Cylinders 1182
Surfaces 7

Set DH0 boot partion, size 100
Set DH1 boot partion, size 900

Click create partion info

Click quick format partions

Reboot with bootdisk

Install WB 2.0

Install Supratools

Set auto-boot jumper to on

Reboot

Amiga gets to a white screen and hangs

I have tried to set this up 3 times with no luck

Now it wont even boot with bootdisks

The wordsync was working fine with a 75mb, but I didnt set that up

No full manual available on the internet

Any ideas? Has anyone used supra scsi before?

Thanks

EDIT: Now the supraboot disks dont boot and just crash on an amigaDOS screen. I have recopiedf the disk images to new disks and the same thing happens, so now I cant reformat it!

Hi,

I can't help you directly as I've not used the disk controller you've got - but it does appear that the driver disks are available here, so as long as you've got access to another Amiga, you could recreate the boot and setup disks...
