Yeah, something is not quite right here...

The card was put back into the A1200. The pfsformat returns an "Initializing disk..." message and then nothing. It should have finished in a few seconds. I can still move my mouse cursor but cannot open any volumes. Like the whole IDE bus just locked up. Here is the command I entered:

pfsformat drive DH1: name "Work" quick noicons fnsize=107

I even tried to do the DOS Format within the HDInstTools program. It too locked up.

I know my CF card is okay as it works great in WinUAE and it came from another A1200 using a different adapter. It was prepped in OS 3.9 before.

I think I will try finding another one of the same adapters.

Figured it out.

My A1200's IDE does not like patched scsi.device 44.20. I had to use 43.45 instead. The other two partitions show up fine now.
