OK, What you have there is a "large harddrive" <G>. Anything over 8GB
is classed that way, because Linux boot can only see 1024 cylinders.
This is because of something in the LBA. I don't really know as a
large harddrive to me is 200MB at the moment. ;-( [This machine only
has 170MB so DOS is my friend]
Look at the large harddrive HOWTO, in IIRC
/usr/doc/HOWTO/other_formats/html/ and this should tell you more
inpho. These are also on the CD if you didn't install them.
