if I need extra partitions, I can add a boot flag, update my grub setup, and fstab entries.
Boot flag?? I am totally unaware of that and have no idea what that does. Will that allow me to add partitions to my 125GB of free space? Can you explain more and point me at some docs/how-to's??
I think that "hwprobe=-modules.pata" only works during install. Later you remove that option and it remains active, I don't know how.
OK Carlos, Greg, Felix
Is that going to work when I go to install 11.0 on the other half of my empty disk? Allow me to make more partitions? I wonder if anyone has tried it?
I guess I could go experiment with the partitioner. That frightens me though.

Bob, Before you assume it will work, you do need to verify 10.3 can at least see your drive via the old drivers. ie. with the "hwprobe=-modules.pata" parameter.
