Heya, sorry to bring an old old thread to live...
I just got a nice 80gb Hitachi for my Mark 1 and I'm having trouble building the drive, as Laura had in this thread earlier. Now I'm wondering if there is another solution than building the drive in a MK2 or MK2a, since I don't really have one to build in.
I was wondering if it could be possible to build the disk in my PC (workstation with 3.5 -> 2.5 adapter or a laptop)? Then there should be enough RAM for the process
Any hints?

mkswap /dev/hda6
swapon /dev/hda6
mke2fs /dev/hda4 <--- Peter can tell us the exact parameters to use here
Is this working? Didn't test it yet...
I wonder also that there's no mentioning of the problem anywhere handy, not in the Drive upgrade document and I really worked to find even this thread through the millions of posts in this forum d=/
Hopefully someone can give me some hints fast, my Empeg is opened on my table and I'd like to get it on the road a.s.a.p. d=)
