I am having difficulty in getting my Zip drive to work with more than one disk.
I managed to partition one disk as I wanted and was able to write to and read
from this disk but when I tried to partition another disk the drive simply does
not respond.
My system is a Falcon with 4Mb ram,an internal IDE hard drive and a SCSI Zip
Drive. I am using HD Driver(v 3.07) configure the hard drive and Zip drive.
What happens when I try to set up the second disk is that the HD Driver
HARDPART.APP won't highlight the SCSI Device 5 box to allow me to enter the
partition dialogue. Could this be something to do with disk identity or
something ?. 
I would appreciate any advice. Please post or mail me if you can help
TIA
