What's the advantage to this over simply configuring the BIOS to recognize the disk up to its limit? All the BIOS ever needs to see is the first 504M/2G/8G of the disk which is where the root filesystem is, right? And from what I have read, a root filesystem should almost never be larger than 504M anyway, right? -- Shawn K. Quinn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
