Just looking around

What the title says. Machine is a 1.5GHz Mac mini G4. Is this a known MorphOS issue? For instance, is it the fact the drive is too big, and MorphOS isn't prepared? Is it because of the fact it's an SSD? (Probably not.) Or is it a MorphOS problem with the exact SSD I have specifically from the manufacturer, which in this case is SuperTalent?
Given the fact it works perfectly under OS X, we know it's a problem on MorphOS' end. Can something be done?
I keep wanting to try to give MorphOS (and the Amiga family as a whole) a chance, but there's always something that goes wrong. First, I discover it has no FireWire support. Then I discover it can't install onto USB (IWizard wouldn't let me). And now this: can't use an IDE SSD of 512 GB...
DDD:
Incidentally, the exact message I see from IWizard is "No storage media found. Please make sure you have some hard drive or different storage media connected."
At this point I'm going to assume the only way I'll be experiencing MorphOS will be via QEMU. I'll see if I can instal from the USB install rather than CD, that will be the last thing to try, perhaps tomorrow. But if that also fails, if it can't use a big-sized SSD within my Mac mini G4, then I'm simply done with this system.
Any help would be appreciated, although I assume this issue can only be fixed by the MorphOS devs by fixing MorphOS itself. :(
Edit: Booting the installer from USB made no difference: the internal drive remains undetected by MorphOS.
