I am having trouble getting a hard drive to partition format and boot from a LoTech Lo-tech 8-bit IDE Adapter rev.3 see here. I have flashed the XTIDE universal "IDE_XT.bin" bios flashed to the rom and I have tried various hard drives which are recognised by the bios but the problem is I cannot see any partitions on the drives. I can create a partition using FDISK and it seems to work but when I reboot the partition is not visible. However, if I take the hard disk out and try it in another pc the partition I created is indeed there. For some reason my Lo-tech board is not seeing any partitions. I get the same result if I use a CF card instead of a hard drive as well.
Ive spent days trying various things and I just cant seem to find anything that works.
Please please please can someone help me sort this.
