Using Amiga Hard Drives
Hi all,
I have got a scsi hard drive in my PC and would like to format and install workbench etc on it so i can put it back in my A2000. When i start up WinUAE, i add the drive from the drop down list of available Hard Drives and try to format it under HDTools. It tells me that it is an unknown type so i try to change drive type. I try to read the configuration but it tells me it doesnt accept SCSI inquiry commands. By the way, i have formatted the drive using the tools that come with the scsi card, that was the only way i could get the drive to show up under winuae. Can anyone tell me how to format the drive with an amiga file system? Thanks. |

You did select uaehf.device and not uaescsi.device?

You must use uaehf.device.
It may be confusing but uaescsi.device and ASPI has NOTHING to do with harddrive support. |
