Ever tried putting your Linux partition at the beginning? I think Linux 2.2
kernels, (Red Hat 6.0 to 7.0 includes 2.2.x kernels) have problems with huge
hard drives, but I think it has something to do with 32GB and higher. If you
have Partition Magic this wouldn't be a problem, but of course, it's
commercial software, gastos na naman. ;) So the other option is to remove
all partitions and re-create all of 'em, but reserve the 5GB, and as much as
possible, put it on the beginning of the drive. If you'll stick with 2.2
kernels.
