Hmm. Well, I've got the latest openboot patch for the Ultra 5 installed, so it looks like the U5 is limited to 32Gb IDE discs. I might see if I can cap the Maxtor to 32Gb to confirm. Is this limitation mentioned in the Sarge Sparc install manual anywhere? I couldn't find it on a cursory scan. cheers, Phil -- http://www.kantaka.co.uk/ .oOo. public key: http://www.kantaka.co.uk/gpg.txt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
