Hi, Just a few things to check:
Device ID should be zero for the internal HD. The internal hard drive should have termination enabled. If it's not an Apple branded hard drive you may need to get a patched copy of drive setup to partition/format it. Also, if it is a third party hard drive, it may need you to use drive setup in order to install appropriate drivers, in which case the OS will not be able to just offer to format it for you until you do this. -Matt jorddo wrote: > Could use some insight/advise.
