I decided to do a fresh install of 7.3 rather than upgrade 7.2 -- "fresh", as on a brand new drive. Of course, I had to jumper out over half of the new drive's 80 gigs for my 3 year old machine to boot. I installed 7.3 on it, then pulled the drive and went back to 7.2 while I ponder and ask and learn.
I've thought of several solution$ but had an idea I'd like to run past those assembled: Since the drive size limitation is supposedly imposed by the BIOS and since Linux doesn't use the BIOS once it has booted, what would be wrong with substituting a switch for the capacity jumper on the drive? The front panel reset button, which is "conveniently" located about 1-1/2" from my CD-ROM's eject button, comes to mind. I think I could hold that button for a couple minutes every few months. -- It is not well to be thought of as one who meekly submits to insolence and intimidation. 6:09am up 1 day, 16:20, 5 users, load average: 0.04, 0.10, 0.08 _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
