Hello, I'm setting up an IBM TP560X with a relatively gargantuan 6.4GB hard drive to run Win95 and FreeBSD. My plan was to make the Win95 partition 2GB and give the rest to FreeBSD, but I seem to be bumping up against the "keep all your root partitions below the 1024 cylinder limit" problem. In the tutorials there is talk of using an "LBA" mode under some BIOS setups. I haven't been able to locate this animal in the startup stuff on my Thinkpad. Is that because there isn't one, or is that because I haven't found it? Has anyone found a way around this, or am I going to be adjusting my partitions?
