Shouldn't matter on the L110. The Libretto <110 models do have the problem
where the BIOS only sees the first 8.4GB unless the OS bypasses the BIOS and
reads this information directly from the HD. Linux and Windows 2K can both do
this without the use of an additional disk manager program.
Unfortunately, with all <=L110 models, no BIOS can handle >8.4GB HDs without
additional help or an OS that can handle >8.4GB HDs like Linux and Win2K.
