Creating RDB Hardfile in UAE
« on: September 15, 2007, 01:38:21 AM »
Ok, I created two hard files: one for system and one for work.

I followed the instructions: HDToolbox DEVICE uaehf.device and yet the Amiga emu does nto see the drives. There is not even a NDOS icon.

Am I doing this wrong?

I am using H-toro...

Thanks

Why two ? If you use a RDB you can create two partitions in one HDF. That's what the RDB is meant for.

This should be hdtoolbox uaehf.device. In version 3.5 and above you *can* add DEVICE, but in earlier versions of HDToolbox, it *may not* be specified.

There cannot be any icon before you have created at least one partition. There will be one icon per partition. No partition, no icon.

Obviously  :-D

Well that helps a lot. I was not sure I only needed on device(RDB). However, I tried the HDToolbox device uaehf.device and nothing showed up

Does anything else need to be done to HDToolbox for it to work?.
