Problems installing DOS to JrIDE

I am using a pre-assembled JrIDE with a CF Card. I can read and write files to the card, but actually installing DOS to it is giving me problems. When I use Compaq DOS 3.31, I can partition the disk, but DOS can't see it except from within FDISK itself(I get an "Invalid Drive Specification"...

Re: XT-IDE on PCjr

Now it did work when I made the initial 6.22 boot disk in my AT, I was able to boot the Jr with it just fine.

Re: PCjr Music composition software.

Re: PCjr Music composition software.
