Just to clarify - the current TOS is limited to 16 meg *partitions*, not
a 16meg drive! [grin]  I don't know anyway around this other than the TOS
fix in 1.4 (I assume its fixed there.)  There are some vital programs,
many come with ICD's host adapter and are excellent HD tools.  With the
296N you're already going to be flying so no speed-up would be needed,
they are iffy at best anyway.  In my opinion the best DiskExpress-type
program for the ST is Tune-Up by Michtron - its incredibly FAST and
does an excellent job.
