- My big hard disk crashed recently on my 320. It is a seagate 1.2 GB
- external disk (i have one of those tiny 180MB internal disks). Anyway
- I restored from backup and when it came up lo and behold the PP size
- was now 2 MB rather than 4 MB. Everything works fine, but du seems to
- be off by a factor of 2 (too high) and I haven't tried to install any
- updates. Since I will move to 3.2.3 (I'm at approx 3.2.2) in the not
- too distant future I wonder if there is any (reasonably simple) way to
- reset the PP size back to the expected 4 MB. I should mention that
- both the big and little disk had their PP size reset on the restore.
- Please respond via mail. Thanks
