My appologies for not posting this eariler but thanks to those who sent an
email. I actually read the hardware Howto (I should have known better) and
figured it out. It wouldn't work with the drive overlay (Disk Manager from
conner) so i ditched that and formatted the drive with fdisk and created 4
partitions making sure that 2 of those partitions were within the first 1024
blocks 1 msdos and 1 linux native to boot.

Thanks again, my apologies again for not reading the docs first :(
