- My AMAX has great difficulties reading the disks in the HD-drive that I
- have in DF0:
-
- I bought the HD drive for my B2000 when failing to find MacOS 7.x on DD
- disks. After much hassle I finally managed to boot from the install
- disk and install a system on my dedicated hard disk.
-
- However it seems impossible to get the Mac to read/recognize any disks
- when booted from the harddisk. It spins the disk a while and then says
- "Unreadable, want to format?"
-
- I have tried various tricks:
- - mounting CrossMac demo
- - removing MFM handling of CrossDOS for DFx:
- - removing and re-inserting the disks while it tries
- to read it
-
- No luck. It doesn't even show a symbol for it if a non-bootable
- Mac-disk is in the drive when starting.
-
- Help! Or at least sympathy...
