Hi !

I have a 60GB harddisk connected to an old motherboard which does'nt =
support larger
harddisks then 32GB. I have changed the reported size too pass biostest.

When i use fdisk it reports only 32GB of my 60GB disk. I have manually =
tried to change the cylindervalue but it just wont work.

Is there any configfile that i can change or something like that ??


Thanx in advance.

Bengt
