OK, now *I* have a question on very large drives.  Over in the Sun
thread a warning was posted recently about Unix SCSI drivers not
handling drives larger than about 1.07 Gig. properly.  I called Sun
and they confirmed they don't support drives larger than 669 Meg but
they are working on a new driver that will fix the problem and will
probably be selling the larger SCSI drives themselves Real Soon Now.

I believe Randall said Amiga has no problem with very large SCSI drives
but perhaps we could hear it just One More Time?  How big a partition
can FFS support?  OFS?

"My drive is so big..."
"(unison) How big is it???"
"It's *soooo* big that only an Amiga can format it!!!"
