Disconnect ALL peripherals. With only the internal hard drive attached, run
Lido.
If that hard drive won't "mount", look hard at the ribbon cable. Replace it,
even.

I have a Conner 350MB hard drive that came in a IIci. No termination. Won't
work
with ANY peripherals attached. It's a jumper issue, I know. And the fact it
used to be
a PC hard disk, so it's got no termination resistors. There are setting you
can get for all
jumpers on the back of that drive off it's manufacturer's website. You must
mount it, first,
then fiddle with the jumpers:  ID, Term Power, motor-start, etc. until an
effective combination is reached. OR, get an Apple-ROMmed hard disk and
breeze on....
