If you're not absolutely clear on how the partition table in the first sector
on disk (aka fdisk or MBR partition) works, be very careful. You can easily

I believe this is not technically precise. If you label a 3Tb disk with
MBR, I think you can boot - but forfeit the extra terabyte of data.
In some future case this might be

I tried to use the LiveCD installer to install on a 2 TB Seagate ST2000DM001 in

Thanks. I don't want to connect to the Internet w/ the system, so adding
