Then you should be able to boot from the CD by holding down the C key after the bootup boing. The Umax CD contained FWB's Hard Disk Tool Kit, which is what you want to use to format the drive. Apple Drive Setup may not see it because many of the Supermac CD drives and HD were not Apple ROM'd. If you are given the option, format it in HFS+.
