Subject: Anyone using a Wren 9 (2.1 gig)?

We would like to get a Wren 9 disk (2.1 gigabytes), and I was wondering
if anyone else had connected a Wren 9 to a SPARCstation 2 with SunOS 4.1.1b
and configured it as a single partition.  There were some problems with
SunOS a while ago with formatting and using disks larger than 1 gig, but
I think 4.1.1b fixes most, if not all, of those problems. Is this true?
Does anyone have a format.dat for a Wren 9?

Thanks for any help.
