Hi, I'm running my 'media server', off my old P2, and the motherboard doesn't support Hard Drives over 32GB, what can I do? I'm running Linux at the moment. I have access to the internet, a cd-rom drive, but no floppy drive.
Older BIOS and >32GB Drives

On the hp of the most harddrive manufacturers like ibm or maxtor you can download harddrive manager that will help you with your old bios. With those tools you are able to use harddrives bigger than 32gb. It's funny when fdisk tells you that 150% space is left on your hd

Yea, but those diagnostics don't work under linux, they're 'windows only'...It's a Seagate by the way.
