Problem with fresh install on WD-GP-750 [SOLVED]

Post by refuser »

Hi,

I have had the bubba two for a while now and i have been running it with a 200 Gb maxtor drive. Now as i try to upgrade to a WD-GP-750 (supposedly supported) i get in trouble.

The disk passes fine when i use SMART to check it and I can use it in my desktop.
When i try to install the bubba system on it though the bubba behaves a little strange.

I connect power, holding the power button until it flashes 4 Hz than 0-5 seconds more (i have tried many ways).
The bubba flashes for a little while, first 4 Hz, then after just a few secons, ~1 Hz then it is lit for about 2-5 seconds and then it shuts of.

When I put the drive back in my computer the partitions are all messed up.

Any ideas?

It seems like i didn't hold the button long enough. Now last time I held it for a good 10s after the light started flashing at 4Hz.
Still flashing now!
*fingers crossed*
