What is the exact version of the kickstart? (IE, 37.xxx) If it's too low a revision, the hard drive won't even be detactable (missing scsi.device). Does the hard drive work in the A600? Kickstart 2 alegedly has problems with "large" (40Mb+) drives. Or are you beyond that stage already? You need a Workbench 2.04/2.05/2.1 Install disk. That'll take care of everything, let you partition and do a full install of Workbench.
