	The ProDOS file system actually is the limiting factor here,
	not the whole of GS/OS.  ProDOS had a limit of 32Mb, and therefore
	the ProDOS FST, which provides access to volumes formated under
	the ProDOS file system, limits the volume size to 32Mb.

	I suggest partitioning your hard drive into two partitions.  You
	can do this using the Advanced Disk Utility on the /System.Tools
	volume.
