This messasge can be ignored.

When did you try the 'eject' command? As soon as you issue the command, the
OS will try to find the new disk size.  So, if the old disk was still
attached, then you get the old size.

Detach the disk, then issue the command.  Then attach the new disk.  That
should work.

Oh, and this problem is fixed in 2.5/6, but a backport really isn't
possible.
