[SunRescue] SunPCi max drive size

[Mike Hebel]

www.partitionmagic.com

Boot SunPCI with the Partition Magic floppy disks in the floppy and then
expand the drive out to 8gig.  Note: You have to tell SunPCI to create the
drive at 8gig initially, partition it at 2gig, then use Partition Magic to
expand it.  I used it this way for the NT clients at work.
