It is always listed as 2G instead of 20 and I am not able to initialize the partition or the disk label to something different to 2 GB. The number of cylinder is always 4092 although the disk has more than 30000. The disk in the BIOS is not set to LBA, but it is set as NORMAL. I have another Maxtor disk that is running fine. How can I create a new disklabel? Thanks Gino __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
