I have put together and sold 11 of these CF to IDE, I had same problem here with some CF cards in the end i used a program called RDprep (http://it.aminet.net/disk/misc/rdp391.lha) for some cards and an older unknown HD setup program (will find name when have time),these cards would not be seen by HDTools but older software found them odd i know ,also the current setup needs no power it all comes from the 1200 built in IDE.

That is my hardware plus 2 more older cf cards (16mb hitachi & 256mb sandisk).
The truth is I have the idefix adapter, but not only test it with idefix adapter. I have tried to connected the "2.5 ide to cf" on amiga original 2.5 ide port (without idefix board offcourse) not works again. The led of adapter blinking when amiga boots. Blinking again when hdtoolbox scaning for devices, but don't seen the cf cards as hd. :crazy:

I use the sintech "IDE to CF (Compact Flash) Adapter for Laptop #44-pins"

You must use a jumper on this board to make the CF card the master device. Check your jumper is on and also check the jumper pins on the board are straight and are making good contact with the jumper.

In HD toolbox: hit the "change drive type" button, then "Define new..." and after that "Read Configuration".
Give the drive a name and hit the "ok" button (never mind the "unit is not a dos disk" error message).
Now you should be able to partition your cf-card in hd toolbox.

In hdtoolbox didn't present the cf card as unknown or whatever. The hd toolbox find only my IBM 4.0GB hd.
If I'll hit the "change drive type" button and "define new" this action will remove all data from my HD. Anyway... now I know this project isn't works for me but I don't know why.

Are you using your IDE-fix adapter..?

Try this:

1. You should have only your CF-IDE adapter (with CF card installed) connected to the IDE port.
2. Start with wb3.0 or 3.1 Install disk and start HD toolbox from the diskette.

Now HD toolbox should find your card.
Then follow the steps from my previous post.
It should work.

Ok, its strange that hd toolbox cant find your card(s).
I know that at least your 256Mb Sandisk card + 44-pin adapter should work (but not in a master-slave chain) because i have tested it myself.
Maybe it isnt compatible with all mainboard revisions if you cant get it working.

About the cd-rom and cf-card:
1.There is two options: use a Elbox splitter or Fast Ata (should work but i have not tested it myself).
DONT use a ide-fix adapter, because the software is not compatible with CF cards.

2.Use a Lexar CF card, at least i know 512Mb cards and less capacity works, those i have tested.
Set up a master-slave chain with the internal IDE interface and install for example the CD-Rom software included in OS3.5 or 3.9.
That works fine!

The CF card is not detected.

I dont know his exact configuration there, but if you use a master slave-chain with the cf as master and a cd as slave, the CD-Rom will not work with most CF cards.

When I used cf with idefix and hd, the hdtoolbox detect only my hd. When disconnected idefix board and hd and connected the cf to ide on motherboard, then booted from floppy and hdtoolbox wrote: "no hd devices connected" or something like that, I don't remember exactly. Probably my cards is not combatible.
