I picked up a 250G hard drive for Diablo to store some of my “backups” and stuff on. Unfortunately, apparently there is a real issue with 137+G IDE Hard drives in Linux. It is something that is being worked out though. For right now I am running a 2.6.0test4 kernel so that I will have access to the whole drive. I wonder if Windows has this issue?
The LKML has been a big help with it though and I have generated a little bit of traffic about some of the different stuff that needs to be done to get it right. Hopefully that will result in some cool stuff.
Thought I would add in that I now have added another 250G to Diablo. Pretty amazing that I can have half a terabyte of data in one machine. Actually since I am running a seperate IDE controller for them I could put a terabyte in it.
