SFS file system probs and a network that actually works!

[EnyGmaTiK]

I finally got hold of a HDD! but... erm ...
I'm returning to the scene after 10 years of absence and...

I have a stock A1200 with an 2.1Gb HDD with 2 partitions [ 100mb / 2Gb ] ROM 3.0, WB 3.1

I can't managed to format with SFS file system ( i read and tried various tutorials from many threads from this forum but i just get a Not DOS disk) and about my Network, i've managed to install AmiTCP and i can ping either my miggy at the PC and ping the PC on the miggy but Genesis refuses to run... I tried Samba but i can't install it...

erm... help?

update: Aexplorer works fine w/ serial but with the NIC i get an ' program filed (error #000000004) '

Hum... so what kind of program should i use to transfer files from the miggy to the PC and vice versa?, a program that could allow me to Map the miggy drives in the PC?

I tried smbfs as well.... no luck... completly noob here...

As for the SFS file system i've grabbed Smart Filesystem v1.214 and i followed every step, but when i chooce SFS/00, i just came up with ' Not DOS Disk '
