I'm trying to use all of a 13 gig Western Digital HD (ACA313000), and I'm
running into the magic 8.4 gig limit. I searched the mail archives, and
found an "I'm not sure if 2.2.7 has fixed that". I created a partition
table with more sectors (25165824 instead of the 16514064 that fdisk
reported) but disklabel wouldn't let me specify more than 16514064 sectors.
I am using 2.2.7-RELEASE. Any pointers would be appreciated.
