Be aware that that dictum only applies to *some* ide cards. Most actually properly ID themselves as IDE drives, and so in the affected systems will enforce the 8 GB limit.
The limit applies to the first 8 gigs of the drive, not of the partition, so
it's best to start with a clean drive. If you partition it, you must install in
the first partition.
If the drive you attempt to install to is > 8 gb OSX will not let you install on it. The drive partition has to be < 8 GB, too.
