Hi all
Paul Vernon has successfully got my Arm 3 A3010 up and going again complete with an IDEA A3000 IDE interface and 4GB CF.
He initially put 4x 499MB partitions on it. I have since added another 4 partitions, (set them up and successfully formatted them - I think) in the extra free space, but but am at a loss as to how to get these to show up on the Icon bar. Various attempts to *Mount different partitions are not successful, unless I am doing it wrong.
I have seen
http://www.iconbar.com/forums/viewthread.php?threadid=12147&page=1
In which Mr Holden states that it is possible to have 8 partitions by forcing it to use 0-3 on the APDL interface.
On boot up I see a message "Ignoring additional partitions" How do I get round this?
I have the IDE format utility which Paul managed to download, but no utilities disc.
The Machine still works fine but only showing the initial 4 partitions on the icon bar, even though I have apparently created more.
Any help greatly appreciated, I've emailed Dave at APDL but no joy... yet
Thanks
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
I just managed to create 8 partitions on my 16-bit Baildon Electronics IDE interface using the same tools that you have so it's definitely do-able 
In the IDEFSForm tool there are two parts to the creation of partitions and when you create them on a fresh disc, the two stages happen in one process which is create and then initialise.
There is an option in the tool to initialise a partition as a separate action. Aside from creating the partitions, have you initialised them?
If not, it might be worth going through that option and seeing how you get on.

Hi Paul
Yes I did use the initialize option, I then got the "ignoring additional partitions" message on boot.
I am awaiting a second CF card to try. Will see how I get on with that.
Cheers
