Harddisk not recognized in HDTools...

26 November 2002, 22:23

I finally managed to get WinUAE to detect my dedicated 1.7GB harddrive, but when i boot Workbench 3.1 and run HDTools on the Install Disk the drive isn't detected at all.... am i doing something wrong? I am running the emu with 68020+FPU CPU and Kickstart 3.0 (trying to emulate my real A4000 as close as i can... although my A4000 has a 68030 which for some weird reason isn't emulated by WinUAE)... So what am i doing wrong? The harddisk is setup in WinUAE's harddisk tab, but when i boot, nothing.... i also checked the preboot menu (the one you get to with both mouse buttons pressed while booting) but nothing there either....

Did you use uaehf.device? Most (all?) hd utilities use scsi.device by default. Try "tools/hdtoolbox uaehf.device"
