- >> I recently bought another 140-meg drive (Rodime RO5000S) and I want to
- partition it as a single HFS volume for archival purposes (my main drive
- is still the 120-meg with only ProDOS volumes). I have a RamFAST rev. D
- with the 2.01e ROM's which doesn't give you anything larger than 32 megs.
- I tried ADU (like you suggested) but it didn't work. I can specify one
- single 137.5-meg partition (in the partition map dialog) but when the
- Initialize dialog comes up, it only shows 32 megs. Should I temporarily
- switch back to ROM 1.11 (I still have those), partition and put the ROM
- 2.01 back?

- Unless you're trying to do something special, you need the 3.0x ROMs to format
- HFS past 32 megs.
