Yes, the Soekris comBIOS is currently limited to 28 bit LBA, only a problem if the boot partition is located higher than the limit. The net6501 will not have that problem, mostly because I got fresh AHCI SATA bios code from Intel.... But while I'm working on the comBIOS anyway I will try to find time to implement 48 bit LBA for older boards too, it's not really that complicated....
