What brand of drive is it?
I know that some drives, like Maxtor require software to recognize it.
If you are using a computer formatted with FAT32, you can boot to DOS, and
somewhere around here I have a boot disk that someone on this list put
together that allows you to access a drive in DOS, and then you could do an
fDisk on the drive, assuming that the drivers in the boot disk allows your
computer to see the disk on the U S B drive, as it's supposed to do.

Also, you might try the add new hardware option in control panel and see if
it can be found.
Then you might need the utility SwissKnife to set it up.
HTH.

Subject: HELP! Jukebox Recorder 2.0: *PANIC* disk:NULL after HD upgrade

Hi List,

I replaced the 20G HD in my Jukebox recorder with a 40G drive today.
After powering on, the drive spins up, but the display reads:

*PANIC* disk:NULL

and nothing happens any more(except for the red light blinking).

Unfortunately, the same happens, when i power on the device with usb
plugged in (in fact, it automatically powers up when i insert the usb
plug). Also the PC does not see the drive, so i am unable to partition
it. I do not have an adaptor to connect the drive to my PC directly and
partition it

I am using Rockbox V 2.2

Can anybody help?
