hello. I have a 20 gbyte fujitsu. My bios didnt recognize the disk as a 20 gbyte so I jumpered the drive to 2gbyte to trick the bios. ( this model can do that). I boot on MS-DOS and then use loadlin to load boot linux. I made some tests using dos, and when copying files I get an average disk transfer rate of 5.1 Mbyte /s. I did the same test using linux and get 2.6 average. These tests where made with a 100megabyte file and a watch. :-) tell me something, does the faster speed is because I have dos on 2gbyte partition? if I had my drive partitioned into smaller partitions instead of having a huge 18gbyte Iwould have an increased speed performance?
thanks
