So I'm finally taking the big step and am in the process of upgrading my HD to a 20GB one. I'm following some advice I saw on the list a while ago, using a windows boot disk's fdisk to partition out the first 8.4 minus hibernation space, and a second hibernation partition, then use a disk manager to partition the rest. However, when I tried to fdisk, it can only see 7978 MB, and will only let me parition 1137 MB. Any ideas as to why? I'm using a Win95 OSR2 boot disk, my BIOS hasn't been upgraded (it's still 6.40), the HD is an IBM-DJSA-220.
