Hi. I wrote the LBA48 patches a loooong time ago (~4 years ago). They are not redundant, as it is possible to do LBA48 sopport with only 32 bit variables (supports up to 2.1TB disks) This was done (upon your request if I remember correctly) to save image size for IDE support for (at that time) normal disks. The 64bit LBA config variable also added %q as a length specifier to printf to be able to print a 64 bit number. I think printf now has gottent support for %llu ? If it does, there are som printf's within CONFIG_64BIT_LBA that can be changed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
