it is not so hard!
You simply:
1-plug your drive to your PC
2-Run WinUAE with the -disableharddrivesafetycheck command line option
3-Add the drive to WinUAE (Add Harddrive)
4-Boot your WinUAE with the workbench installation floppy and continue from there.
5-Remember to set the correct parameters in HDtoolbox for partitioning your drive (as mentioned in the guide)
 
But then if you are using a drive bigger than 4GB you need a patch (the guide explains how to do this).
 
That is basicly all there is to it.

Or if your card is bigger then 4gb only partition within the first 4gb of the card with partitions smaller then 2gb.
 
I use 500mb for sys(DH0) 1gb for storage/demos (DH1) and 1.7gb for games. (DH2)
