This is a problem with old BIOS's (?) that cannot understand >8.4GB HDDs. Newer machines should not have any problems like this (but you may get lucky... the manufacturer on my notebook probably thought '8.4GB of HDD should be enough for anybody!':-)
Hmmm. I've played with both Caldera 2.2 and 2.3. Installed on a primary (IDE) drive in a 2 drive system, installed on a secondary drive in a 2 drive system (my NT box at work... shhh don't tell'em:), and on an extended (linux extended) partition in a single drive config (notebook). I've never seen it mess with the partition table... _without_ warning (I had some trouble with 2.2 when trying to setup a partition that went off the end of the hdd - according to bios), but that's another story...

Agree 100% on those _bad_ beers (cat piss). Coopers is good, but for a real meal, go for a Tooheys OLD !
