[Duo2400] Re: 4GB limit?

[Brian Getz]

The size limit seems to only come into play with
regards to the SCSI disk mode.

I recently put a 10 gb in my 2400 and partioned it
into three sections.

The small sections house only OS 9.1 and OS 8.6 OS's 
The third section holds all the other
files(applications games etc.)

I have had no problems with the SCSI disk mode when I
use it.

The 4 gb number seems to be the limit if you want to
use SCSI disk mode.

Anybody tried to use it with anything larger than 4GB
partion
