Gayle,
What version ROM are you using and what version AmigaDOS? The HDDs
were supposed to be a problem with 2.04 AmigaDOS, but OK with 2.1. They won't
be with 1.3 ROMs, though. If you are using 2.04, find a program called
HDFixer. It's supposed to help get HDD drives to work on the 2000 under 2.04.
Maybe that will help.
I think O/S2 does run on a bridgeboard, but what advantage is there to
an operating designed to need a 32 bit bus for best performance when it is
running on a 16 bit machine? Besides, I really doubt that O/S2 is worth the
cost and disk space in lieu of Windows. For our small little machines I thing
Windows is probably best. But if DRDOS can certainly come up with a better
solution, I'm interested. I sure like DRDOS 6 much better than MSDOS.
