Hello David Raeker-Jordan, perhaps, that's the tip for you:
keep the harddisk jumpered to use the _full_ capacity, e.g. 60GB, use a 2.4.20-Kernel, .config-File: # # IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices # CONFIG_IDEDISK_STROKE=y edited by make menuconfig. That means, to activate in the kernel the resize-function for big IDE-Harddisks. Compile the Kernel and restart your system. Forget screwdrivers, BIOS-Updates, ATA100-Cards or a new Motherboards and , at last, avoid the fit of rage.... That's the easiest and the most intelligent way to get the full harddisk-capacity! I tried it successfully on my old (1997) Pentium I, 166MMX-System with a Western Digital 60GB-Harddisk on Debian 3.0r1 !
