 This has come up before I think. Reduce the number of heads in your mount 
list to 7, and increase the blocks per track accordingly. Also, I have
a 330 meg Priam drive, and when I first got it I formatted the whole thing as
one volume. There may be a bug in DOS regarding disk sizes (I'm using 1.3)
but I haven't seen it.
