Autoboot ROM

Autobooting requires at least Kickstart 1.3.

HD Partitioning:

The M-Tec AT-500 has the mtec-a500.device driver in its autoboot ROM.

Partition the HD or CF card in WinUAE using HDTools does not seem to work when you put it in to the M-TEC AT-500.

To properly partition the HD in the M-Tec AT-500 you need to use the ATInst 2.0 software. The (non-bootable) disk image for it can be found at:

ATInst will allow you to partition the HD and give you the option of copying the Workbench 1.3 and Extras disk contents on to it.

For Workbench 2.0 and above you skip this option and use the install disk for it.
