[comp.sys.mac] Any way to make >32M partitions with FWB's Hard Disk Partition?

moriarty@tc.fluke.COM (Jeff Meyer) (04/14/89)

I'm curious -- FWB's Hard Disk Parition 2.0 won't let me build partitions
larger than 32 Megabytes.  Anyway around this?  Some limit I can change with
ResEdit?  I'm currently using HD Partition from SUM, but I like HD Partition
better (I've had some funny interactions with DiskFit's tape driver INIT and
the HD partition INIT -- sporadic and livable, but still...)

                           "Why would she want
                            another kid?? She's
                            already got ME!"
                                                     "Yes, you'd think she'd
                                                      have learned her lesson
                                                      by now..."

Thanks -- I called them, they will be releasing a version soon that breaks
the 32M limit, but they don't have any idea when it'll be out.  *sigh*
