[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] 2091 + 2090 problems

kaye@FSCORE.dec.com (Mark Kaye - Where's my Kama Sutra pop-up book for Zero-G) (05/03/91)

I have a friend i have been trying to help over the phone...
He has an AMIGA 2000 with a 50M hard drive w/2091
He has a 2090 (not an A) with 2 ST506 drives (ST225 + Micropolis 70M)
Here's the problem:
He can PREP both with a small OFS partition. The ST225 if fine, but
the Micropolis gives checksum errors during format. He can't create a
2nd FFS partition on either drive. An OFS partition seems to work on
both, but FFS refuses to even mount. Any ideas?
