When it was dilivered to me, I found that it is not compatible with Apple's HD SC setup program, and their format/partitioning program is not capable of A/UX compatible partition. I called their technical support, they told me I have to buy a partitioning program such as Silverlining or similar to do that, and they don't support A/UX, also they dont recommand A/UX on their disk. Now I am confused. Do I have to return my disk, and buy from others with A/UX partioner? Or I can do myself with some partitioning program? Does anybody have a similar experience? Then pls help me. Any recommandation or comment welcome! Jong-Hoon Oh jhoh@joseph.ucsc.edu
