Large Disk LBA48 Install with Debian

[Bill Nedell]

I am trying to install Debian on a 200GB disk. I am using a recently purchased (3.0r2) CD set.   I've figured out that to use LBA48 addressing I need a late model kernel (>= 2.4.19). Apparently the kernel(s) on the Debian boot CD is not recent enough so that when the installer takes me to partition the disk only 137GB of it is recognized.   I've been searching the web and the Debian site for the right way to work around this. Is there an FAQ/HowTo on installing Debian when working with very large disks?
