There are more options now in the new version. Are you sure you filled in only those fields which existed in the old version, too ? E.g. usually you would fill in Volume Name and leave Device Name empty. Do not choose DH0 as Volume Name.

- Reloading the configuration, the hard drive is lost.


WinUAE removes hard drives which are not found (e.g. non-existent directory).

- Adding a directory as hard drive dh0: and instantly booting from floppy leads to the Message "Please insert volume dh0 in any drive".


This is probably because you named both Device Name and Volume Name dh0.

- Booting from the hard drive is not possible at all.


I don't know why you come to this conclusion. If there is a HDD and no floppy disk in any drive, it will certainly boot from the HDD.
