Hi all,

I have a Western Digital 80Gb Hard drive that I rescued from an old PC that I have been trying to get going properly on an A4000 Desktop via the motherboard's IDE interface. I'm using PFS3 and its supplied HDToolbox program which says it's an 8Gb drive. I've then added the SCSI direct PFS3 filesystem to the partitions, done a quick format on them and installed WB 3.1, then 3.9 with 3 boing bags, including the ROM updates. The OS 3.9 HDToolbox then sees it as a 80Gb drive but won't let me set it up using any more than 8Gb. Any ideas how to overcome this?



Maybe switch to SFS?

Nice Ports on AmiNet!
