Partitioned my hard disk in WinUAE, but forgot how I did it.
« on: September 01, 2008, 08:58:58 PM »
Hi all

This is really bad. I have just used WinUAE to format and partition my 40GIG HD connected via USB to IDE. I used one of the Classic Workbench download packs from "Bloodwych" but..
1) Cant remember which one I used to do it
2) I thought I used HDTool box, and that found the 'uaehf.device' but tried all the packs again and now HDTool box looks different. The one I used only had 3 buttons (Install and I think partition being two)and it cant find the hard disk (or any hard disk)

I need to know how to do this again and also so I can change the drive names. I used WHD0, WHD1 and WHD2, but want to use the DH or HD prefix.
Also I ended up with two 900mg partitions and a 35gig partition all formatted in FFS and this is reflected correctly when the hard disk is mounted in WinUAE. Is the format correct, with no risk of files wrapping over etc..?

Thanks in advance

Ok, done it again. I somehow used the WB3.9 emergency disk and the CDROM in the PC to do it.

Now have another problem that I will ask in another topic.
