Why not just use Apples "Festplatte installieren" (how is this standard
utility that comes with the System called in Amerika?).

Just get Your favourite disk editor and search the file for the string
"Seagate". You ll probably find the sector with the known drive
names/types. Just patch in the name of Your hard disk (Schow SCSI
bundeled with FastBackII reports that) and use the patched *copy* (You
always work on copies, right?) to install Your Hard disk.

Works for me and my Seagate ST1096N and Syquest SQ555.

(Hello Apple: dont unleash the lawyers: I patched for private use only!)
