Hello everyone,

I was setting up a Plan 9 machine using the Fossil+Venti option.
Everything installed well, but upon booting the new system I receive
the following error:

cannot add sdC0!plan9 [63,390720960) to disk [0,268435455): partition
boundaries out of range

>From that point I am left with only two options, boot from fd0 or
ether0. Neither being what is desired.

I read the 9fans archive to find a solution but to no avail. My first
guess is that the problem lies somewhere within sdata.c or 9load.

Any ideas on how to correct the "partition boundaries out of range" problem?
