Subject: PATCH: Support tera byte disk
Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2002 13:11:20 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020918131120.A5120@lucon.org> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 211 bytes --]
For a 1.8TB SCSI HD, kernel reports:
SCSI device sda: -773086208 512-byte hdwr sectors (-395819 MB)
Here is a patch to fix it. BTW, I don't think it will work with > 2TB,
which requires bigger changes.
