hi,
I found this piece of code in boot0.s, is it possible
if you could explain me a bit about it.

.set NHRDRV,0x475        # Number of hard drives

The hex value comes out to: 1141.

Does that mean, that this is the amound of maximum
hard drives a user can have on FreeBSD?

If that is so, is there a way to boost that value a
bit
higher, or am I just getting the whole point wrong?

Thanks,
=Hiten
