Hi,
did you try other filesystems like PFS3? (Aminet)
PFS3 can use "DirectSCSI"-commands in NO SPLIT-mode for handling partitions/hdd >4GB (PDS\0 as DosType).

Code: [Select]
FastATA'99 offers you the following support for HDD > 4GB:

1. SPLIT: dividing a HDD into logical units > 4 GB,
2. NO SPLIT:  FastATA'99 supports the following:
                 NSD (New Style Device  - OS3.5),
                 TD64 (TrackDisk 64)
                 DirectSCSI commands.

I don't have a FastATA-1200, but there's a switch in the old ATA3.driver called "NOPART".

Maybe it's for using NO SPLIT-Mode without prefs?  :-\
