Have an issue setting up a 4GB CF card to work with the Amiga. I have connected everything up and booted the Amiga using the Installer 3.1 disk. Open up HDToolbox and the Amiga can see the CF card without any problems (I have defined a new drive) Now the confusing part. I create a partition of 208MB and label this as DH0 and bootable. I then save this and reboot. On boot up I then get the partition displayed on the main screen and I can format. Brilliant. Then I go back into HDToolbox and create another partition DH1 at 1.5GB. Save and reboot. On reboot the new partition DH1 does not appear? Go back into HDToolbox and the partition is there. It's set to automount with SFS file system.
I have selected the Default Setup which creates two 1.9GB partitions. These are viewable in the main screen after a reboot. Thought I could cheat it this way. I reduced the first partition to 208MB and created another partition in the free space. Rebooted and the first partition was now 208MB but the second partition was no longer available even though it is visible in HDToolbox?
Overall it would seem that even though I can create as many partitions as I like only one will be seen, the first one. If I use the default setup option then I can have 2 partitions as long as I don't amend the second partition, if I do I lose it. I have tried this in WinUae using the CF card as a hard drive but I get exactly the same behaviour?Anybody have an idea as to what could be wrong? I may be doing something wrong but I cannot see what other settings I can use. Very confusing
