SFS for hard drives larger then 4 gig. How to install?

[tonyvdb]

How do I go about getting the SFS instaled on a amiga SCSI drive thats larger then 4 gig? I have OS3.5 installed

Ok thanks,
I tried that and where it lets me enter the "identifire" when I enter 0x535465300 it wont let me place that many charictures in the box it stops me at 10 and I need 11 to do that :-?

I beleave so... I also went and installed the update thats available. v2.3

[tonyvdb]

Ok thanks I will revert back to the other one

Ok, I have hooked up my second SCSI drive to the Cyberstorm, did a low level format of it and did the SFS install as described above. I have placed several partitions on that drive but when I rebot the drived do not show up on my Workbench screen? but when I go into my SCSI toolbox it is there and all the partitions are there. What did I do wrong?

[tonyvdb]

OOPS! I guess a person has to do a cold reset of the Amiga I was doing soft resets My bad. It worked after I shutdow and restarted. :roll:

[tonyvdb]

Hmmmm...It still will not let me format any partitions above the 4 gig limit? I can see the partitions on my workbench but it won't finnish formating the partition above 4gig it stops about 27% in, Im not sure why this is?

All my partitions are smaller then 1.5 gig but thanks for the tip. I will try to do a quick format of the drives.

[tonyvdb]

Ok good to know. Does this mean that the partitions above the 4 gig size are not going to be as stable/relyable?

[tonyvdb]

Great information to know. Its all working great now.
Thanks
