Well, the native driver on my imac will not recognize the os if any of it is past the 8 gig line. This is only with the tray loading imacs I believe. I do know it took me a couple days of trying over and over again until I was told about the 8 gig limit. Since then, I have been able to use X after setting the partition so that the first 8 is in one partition. The problem with that is, after installing, the installer concentrates all apps/os software into that first partition. Eventually, the partition will become full. Causing problems down the road. I want to avoid that. Thanks! Will __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
