Ok I found out the proper numbers:
39704  cyls, 16 heads, 63 sectors. 

I defined it that way in the BIOS.

When I get to the fdisk part of the install I did 'G'.  I then set the geometry 
according to those numbers and told it to use the entire drive.  When I go to define 
the slices, though, it still thinks the drive is only 2 gigs.  What am I doing wrong?
