    I have an old PC HDD formated as fat12, it has various partitions it seems, the HDD runs correctly but MorphOS not mount it, it needs some mountlist or something?

    fat12? hmm, fat12 is the pc floppy filesystem iirc.
    You mean fat16 i suppose.

    You must have fat95 installed and a mountlist must exist for this hd, then you can mount it manually

    btw, i've always been told that native 'mount' command was buggy for this kind of device and was adviced to use AmigaOS 3.1 'mount' instead.

    Have you tried MountDOS?

    Yes, but how to use?

    I tried with:

    Ram Disk:> mountdos scsi.device 2 list
    Unable to open device 'scsi.device', unit 2.
    Ram Disk:> mountdos scsi.device 3 list
    Unable to open device 'scsi.device', unit 3.


    And nothing...

    scsi.device.. sure not ide.device?

    my MountDOS tooltypes:

    DEVICE=ide.device
    UNIT=2
    BUFFERS=1000
    FAT95
    LIST
    MOUNT
    QUIET

    am Disk:> mountdos ide.device 2 list
    Device IO-error $2D.
    Ram Disk:> mountdos ide.device 3 list
    Device IO-error $2D.

    I was tried using your tooltypes and nothing...

    AFAIK FAT12 is used on MS-DOS floppy disks.

    Have you tried CrossDOSFileSystem ?
