While experimenting with a larger then 4GB drive, and workbenchinstalls through WinUAE i found out that apparently i have to partition the drive with HDToolBox, and manually format it, (Well, as manual a right click and poking in a menu gets) since HDsetup tries to use all of the drive, and makes it error out. The drawback to this seams to be that i'm now "stuck" with a floppy image signifying the "drive" for the "Work" space.

Am i going about this in the wrong way, should i have done something differently, or is this the right way, and there is a way to get the "right" icon for the partition?
