Amiga 2000HD Hard disk

Hello, a while ago I got a semi-functioning Amiga 2000HD... after
tinkering with it for a bit, the accelerator crashed the machine every few
minutes, the install was screwed, etc. So, After finding the 68k chip bad,
I pulled one from my dead A500 (I have a bit of an Amiga grave yard, you
see.. :) and pulled the 2.1 ROMs from the accellerator and put them into
the 2000, I now how a functioning system... except the HD with a screwed
up install. I want to use a 105-meg SCSI drive that I rescued from a Mac
at school. I have an complete set of install disks for the 2.1 OS but for
some reason it can't detect my drive when I try to format it. None of the
hard disk programs detect it. (When I boot from the install disk with the
old HD installed, it appears as an icon on the Workbench, but when I boot
with my 105 meg drive installed, no other icons appear.

And ideas?

Thanks,
Kevin
