Do not use cfdisk on 2TB+ drives, it gives bad alignment. Use gdisk or cgdisk with GPT partition tables. Create a 1MB partition at the start of type EF02, which keeps backward compatibility, then partition as normal. Note that GPT has none of the primary/logical crap, just create the partitions you want. -- Neil Bothwick Downloading - A quick way of catching a virus from anywhere in the world.
