Oddly enough, your problem *is* caused by the hddisk.info file
(or lack of one)

that file is what Binddrivers uses to figure out which driver
goes with which board.  So put one in, and things should be
better.  (add a .info file called hddisk.info, of type TOOL
with the following tooltype

PRODUCT=514/1

(case is important)

and your hddisk should open.

dismissed it.  That has *got* to be a curse of some sort :-)
