Put a 500 GB on a Mac which doesn't support large drives and it shows

The LBA48 property is easy to add to many G4s, and is unnecessary on  
anything made including and after the QS 2002.

The "High Cap" kext is another route, and it works back to the G3s,  
for which the LBA48 property probably doesn't exist.
