I forgot to mention: THE FOLLOWING LIMITATIONS APPLY: 1) The system files required for booting always have to be in the area blow 128 GB, otherwise the Open Firmware won't find them and the system cannot boot.
2) This driver is only on your installed version of Mac OS X. When you boot from a rescue disk (DiskWarrior?) or the Mac OS X installation media you won't have this patched version of KeyLargoATA.kext. For them to continue to work you will still require the Open Firmware patch. KEEP THAT IN MIND. 3) From 1) you see that you MUST have a bootsystem partition that is smaller than 128 GB in any case. The modified kext simply helps you to access all your larg disks even with a low PRAM battery so you won't need the firmware hack for every day work. And what I also forgot: This is for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Note that the driver never changed from 10.5.0 to 10.5.8. It is actually the same source code as in 10.4.x as well, but I don't know if the kext will also work (without rebuilding) for 10.4. If you should try that, prepare to use your rescue system! Now let me know your successes/failures.
