Hmm, FAT16 is supposed to support up to 2GB, so I'd say it's a problem with hard drive or bios emulation. Some bioses won't support hard drives over a certain size, and if the jumpers are on backwards then it seriously constrains the hard drive size that's available (my experience with my 8gb drive was only 2gb available, which is the same ratio as you're getting). I don't know how the virtual hard disk would be emulated, or whether it emulates jumper and master/slave settings, but that could be something to look at. Are there any bios updates for your compatibility card? -- Mac-N-DOS is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Mac-N-DOS list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/mac-n-dos.shtml> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-n-dos%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
