eaglelil: IIRC, the jumper should always be on Master, if the Amiga had a CD-ROM, that would be set to 'Slave', 'Cable Select' should only be used with PC's, and even then it needs a specific IDE cable....
silent: does the HD light come on for just a few moments, or does it go for some time? Try removing, then replacing the IDE cable a few times... failing that, I think the HD might be dying....
