what app to use to partition a FW drive ?
Since the apple disk tool in os9 doesn't see a FW drive, what application is the best to partitionate a FW drive? I use FWB now, but yesterday i got some partitions to dissappear and upsetting the finder. Diskwarior recovered it all easily but the clients face was pale. So was mine for a moment.
OS9.2.2 on a DP800, IBM deskstarGP 120GB FW drives. Fokke |

If you have access to a system running Mac OS X, I believe that the Apple Drive Setup which ships with Mac OS X allows partitioning of FireWire drives.

Yes, i know osx has support for FW, but i have no access to such a computer.
Hmm, what i think of now... i have recieved my computer with a cd Mac OS X install (10.1), and if i start up with 'c' maybe i can use disk setup then... i'll have a try later. |

Fokke,
Remember that if you are going to install OS X, deauthorize all your plugins, otherwise you'll lose them! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

Hard disk SpeesTools partitions firewire, but their drivers suck!
So if you use it to partition, turn off their exetntion an use os9's 'erase disk' to reinstall apple drivers. |
