Keywords: Hard Disk, Configuration Message-ID: <280A74F5.599C@ibma0.cs.uiuc.edu> Date: 16 Apr 91 03:52:21 GMT Sender: news@ibma0.cs.uiuc.edu Followup-To: comp.sys.amiga.hardware Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Lines: 23 Originator: martin@sunc6.cs.uiuc.edu Hi, hope you can help! I just installed a Quantum 105S (lucky me!) on my 2000HD, but don't know what to do about the Inner Zone. I have two partitions (and the RES2: device) on the outer zone which has 35 sectors/track. I also have a partition that takes up all of the inner zone, which has 28 sectors/track. The problem is that AmigaDos won't let me format this partition, presumably because the corresponding RES drive is listed at 35 sectors/track. Please don't tell me that I can't use the last 20Meg of my hard disk!!! What can I do to get AmigaDos to accept this black sheep as one of the family? Thanks, - Rocco P.S. If it matters, I have a 2090a controller, and have the Quantum set to be SCSI device 0. -- Name: Rocco Martin | Internet: martin@cs.uiuc.edu, or roccom@tahoe.unr.edu --+-- Witty saying: You can pick your nose, you can pick your friends, | but you can't wipe off your friends behind the couch... |
