If Apple Drive Setup was used to format the drive while running on a PowerMac, you got a driver on there that only works with PowerMacs, not 68K Macs. The easiest solution is to format again while connected to a 68K Mac. A big drive like that will probably work fine formatted 1:1 even on the SE. Apple's software running on the SE will default to 2:1 interleaving, while 3rd party formatters typically let you adjust the interleave. You do need to make the partition size slightly less than 2G. -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
