@amigadave:
Just use the normal HDToolBox found in the HDTools drawer on the 3.1 install-disk or in the Tools drawer on a normal setup.
In its tooltypes, set SCSI_DEVICE_NAME=tekscsi2.device, then start it. It should then find your harddrive.
Use the "Change Drive Type"-button, then "Define new", "Read configuration from drive", etc to create a rdb on it. It will also say the drive is some ridiculous size, but dont mind.
When that is done partition the drive and create a say 100MB workbench-partition in the very beginning of the drive. If you are about to create more partitions at this time, make sure they are in the first 4GB of the drive.
Now save the changes to the drive, reboot your computer with the 3.1 install-disk. After booting, first format your workbench partition and then install WB3.1.
Now if you choose to stick with WB3.1, you will have to stick with using the first 4GB of the drive if you dont try the TD64 variant of FFS found on aminet.
If you install Workbench 3.5 and above, the NSD (New Style Devices) patch-system will act as a wrapper, patching NSD calls by the newer FFS, to use direct-scsi calls that tekscsi2.device will understand and thus you will be able to use partitions created beyond the first 4GB of the drive.
One thing to keep in mind though is that disregarding if you use 3.5 and above, the workbench-partition you boot from needs to reside in the first 4GB of your drive as the region past the first 4GB cant be accessed until the NSD patch is loaded.
