   How to install a big hard disk on a Mega

   Hey,   
      
   I've just bought an old ATARI Mega STE, 4Mbyte, but still   
   with its original 48Mbyte HD.   
      
   I can format this old hard disk, but 48Mbyte is not much.Got   
   a 2 Gbyte IBM SCSI drive, it fits and spins up, but the   
   Advanced Hard Disk Utilities do report a "fatal error" when   
   I try to install that hd.   
      
   Is 2Gbyte too much for an ATARI STE? I was told that   
   the 2Gbyte drive is working. Do I need a better version of   
   the hard disk tools? Are there any upgrades?   
      
   TIA,
