March 11, 200521 yr I notice a number of people dualboot w/ Either Xp/2K/or possibly Linux alongside 98, I would imagine those of you with monster drives haven't broken all the partitions into 32GB ones, what did you do then?Just use NTFS or linux-FS on larger partitions and not let 98 read/write to those drives?
March 11, 200521 yr Crash&Burn,32gb??? I'm not dual booted & I have a 38gb partition on 98se for storage & backup w/ no probs on read/write
March 11, 200521 yr Author *Chuckle* Thanks. I researched it here more, found that link for http://www.pcguide.com/ref/hdd/file/part.htm Of course I never knew of this "limit" til last year or so when I got my 80gig HD and the sales rep "advised" me not to partition the drive larger than 32GbSince then I've been under that impression Gah.
March 12, 200521 yr I have a 100 GB partition in 98 SE. I also use 1 GB of RAM (plus 1 GB swap).Some tools show strange numbers when you have > 128 GB, but they basically work. I was using a 200 GB partition for a while.
March 12, 200521 yr the max 98 se can see is up to 137GB but with the sp that limit is raised i believe.
March 12, 200521 yr Ya, the old salesperson gotcha been there myself I, personally, never needed that big a partition azgahl so I'll take your word for it[unlike another topic we know]
