When I was originally trying to install 7.5.3 from DT2, Disk First Aid
and Drive Setup were both perfectly happy to recognize the original hard
drive.
I found the 8.1 Disk Tools image (Disk_Tools_PPC.img) but I'm having a
hell of a time getting it to write to a floppy. Bluescreens on the
windows machine when it tries to access the image (using TransMac), I'm
almost wondering if it's not corrupted. I've downloaded it from a couple
sources, and both of them do the same thing. When placed into the SE/30,
the floppy in question is seen as not being recognizable - when one
tries to initialize it, the system throws an Error 11 and restarts.
Curiouser and curiouser.

Original Drive still works in the Duo, but it makes some pretty terrible

When the drive still had a System install on it, it would boot, but it
would literally take hours to do it. Unfortunately, I don't have access
to a Duo Dock (though I'm starting to think I should take someone up on
an offer of one and have it shipped).
Try booting from the floppy you have and see if it recognizes the
original HD. Just to make sure that software is seeing an IDE drive.
