I'm trying to get a 10 meg RLL drive and Spirit HDA-506 controller to co-operate with my A500. So far I've got all the pieces together, running, and not hanging the computer. However, the system will not recognize the hardd rive now that I've done a low-level format. No MOUNT, no DIR, but I can park the heads and format and verify the drive. Question: How do I get the system to recognize the hard drive, and how do I get the system to boot from same? (note: 1.3 rom is in).
