My Linux install is on a 4.3GB ( with the usual partitions) drive so I would expect it too work on a smaller drive -----Original Message----- From: James (Jim) Hatridge [<A HREF="mailto:hatridge@straubing.baynet.de">mailto:hatridge@straubing.baynet.de</A>] Sent: 24 November 1998 19:51 To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: [SuSE Linux] HD Size? Hi All!; I've got an old 486/33, the bios is dated 6/6/91. I have two HDs on it. I want to replace the Linux only disk (hdb) with a larger one (now it's 120meg). I was told that I could only use up to a 520meg HD. Is this right? What would happen if I tried a bigger one. TIA!
