In between your steps 8 & 9
my snap goes to formating... and I have stoped it after about 4 hours,guessing that something was wrong., so I am back to the forum.
-How long will this process take ? and I should wait whatever (the new HD is 120 GB)
- After all that waiting, I should run the reinit command, it will go at it again and have to do the long waiting again ??
- Since we cann't browse to the snap when the formating or the reinit commands were issued, is there any other way we can monitor the process ?
thank you.

3. Make the original 40gb HDD as master and the new 120gb HDD as slave
4. Boot from your diskette.
5. Check the BIOS to ensure it can see both HDD's.
6. Run a:\Dolly xhd128: xhd129:
7. Wait HOURS till you're back at the a:\ prompt
8. Set the jumpers on the 120gb HDD back to master and reinstall to the Snap housing
9. Boot up and "find" the IP address using the Assist program (if you're running DHCP)
10. Browse (http) to http://ipaddress/config/debug
11. Type in the command box - config devices info
12. You should get a reply on the device # 1000
13. Again type in the command box - config devices format 10000 /reinit
14. Reboot and wait till the new drive has been formatted
15. Bingo ! a nice big Snap drive :-) |
