To reply to my own post, I tried an install with the RH6.2 CD-ROM to my big 
disk. Druid would not use the disk but if I selected fdisk, I got the warning 
messages but was able to define a new partition. Returning to Druid I could 
then select that partition as root and proceed. The Wolverine install does 
not let you do that, it treats the warning message as fatal and will not 
present the big disk in the dialog. 

!! REDHAT PLEASE TAKE NOTE!! 

Cheers
