All partitions will show up on OS3.5. It's got pretty good support
for large HDs. Too bad that it doesn't have an FFS salvage tool with
support for drives > 4 gig.
Also, about the powerflyer. Got it working with no problems here,
except for having stupidly damaged the RDB on the main drive somehow.
Still now sure how on earth I did that, but I lost no data anyway.
The 20.5 Gig drive works pretty well as a boot drive (someone
mentioned that it wouldn't or something). Oh, and I even plugged the
ribbons the wrong way round in the ide port on the flyer, and still
nothing blew.
And just to make things better I have a twister serial stuck on the
clock port *without* any of the socket raisers :). Yep a pretty bad
sight, but then I'm suicidal :).
