We need help!!!!!!!!!!!

We just got our Hard-Disk from Atari (Beta-Test). Unfortunately there
was not a single sheet of paper, which tells how to get it up and running.
If the power is switched on, the disk does something (self-test of the
controller???) but what. Reseting the 520ST does not boot the hard disk
(The Hitchhikers Guide (26.Aug.85) says that this is ok). But booting
from floopy and then creating a drive "C" for the hard disk doesn't
work either. So any hints are welcome. Please send your mail to
