yes, I've done that, yet the information is reported incorrectly. After I setup bi0 as 20 meg, and dh0 as 8 gig, I go to create another partition, supposed to have ~11 gigs free, but when you I go to create it, I have at the most 40 or so sectors left which translates to about 8 megs or some very small number.. where is the 11 gigs?
