Not so. I have a 4Gb drive, 1 partition, in my 7500 that started with OS 7.5.5 on it. For details check out: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=8647 Here is the relevant snipet though: The maximum volume size under System 6 and System 7 is 2 GB. System 7.5 increased that limit to 4 GB and System 7.5.2 (and later) increases that limit to 2 TB on some computers, including: - any computer that came with System 7.5.2 or newer. - any Macintosh computer with PCI slots. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
