I've just bought a "9.1"G hard drive for my OS3.5 CyberstormPPCed 4000.
It only recognises the first 4G.  Version on the partitions says 45.1,
as it does on the old IDE drive.  Info doesn't see the upper partitions,
but assign says they're there.  SCSIConfig in CyberSCSI drawer says
something about my FFS not being useable with more than 4G and to use
OS3.1 FFS with a TD64 patch (supplied).  I thought OS3.5 FFS could see
larger drives?  It certainly has the larger Mask in HDToolbox (7FFFFFFE).

Can anyone help, please?

Noel.
