Is linux going to support the bigger HDs? I have a 27.3G HD and I am trying
to install linux and NT but can not. I don't care about NT just Linux. I am
above the 1024 sectors. Please help.

Well I had no troubles formating a 50 gig drive in linux or NT, all
though be prepared to go get a snack while it formats, I told it to do
a check also and it took a while.
What scsi controller are you useeing, I formatted with both buslogic
and adaptec, don't have a wide scsi future domain controller if the
defunct company even has one.  But linux has a 4 terabyte drive size
limit unless it has been increased.
