Can't recognize my Hard Drive...
« on: April 28, 2008, 04:39:01 PM »
LOL! I solved one problem, here comes another one. I'm the most unlucky people I think. :boohoo:

I turned on my A1200 today, but nothing. I see only the boot screen (with the disk). It doesn't want to boot via my 2.5" hard drive. What is happening? Everything was used to be normal last night, when I switched off my Amiga. :cry:

I enter the Early Startup Menu, and I saw that my Amiga don't want to recognize my HD anymore, not even the partitions. I see only DF0: and CC0:. That's strange! :crazy:

Anyway, to finish up, my hard drive spins at the reset but nothing afterwards.

Any ideas? It will much appreciated. :boohoo:

Yes. I did that. I run HDInstTools and I saw that the app recognizes my hard drive. But the partitions are vanished. :-? So I lost everything I pressume, right?

The HDD is 40GB, but used only the first 8GB (as my Amiga recognizes). I used FFS, I didn't have time to install SFS.

The version of FFS that was inside the 3.1 Workbench disks. I have also a Blizzard 030.

But my Amiga recognizes 8GB (Ok, I know that), but I had one partition (bootable) less than 1GB and another about 2GB. That's all. So I occupied less than 3GB.

So, is there any solution to recover that, or I must start from the beginning? :boohoo:

And how I can avoid that in the future?

I will try this, thanks doctorq.

My scsi.device was updated to 43.23 (?) I think. But I didn't use SFS as filesystem.
