I am trying to install Linux on my 386, I have a Future Domain TMC950 card
with its BIOS chip removed, I have been able to get the drive recognised 
by using the tmc8xx=0xCA000,5 commandline.

My problem is in the setting up of partitions, the drive is a Seagate
ST31200N (1.2Gig) SCSI drive. It has C2700/H9/S84 according to Seagate
AND the Kernal startup, but fdisk wants to argue that I cant have more
than 64 (or is it 63) sectors...

Where to now....?????

Rob.
