I can't remember whether we've actually yet applied the LBA48 patch that mlord kindly sent us;

Important note: Remember that the first version of that patch he sent you was flawed. He later updated that area of the code with fixes. When the time comes that you want to update the stock kernel with this patch, you'll probably want to use the latest version of his code, not the first version he sent you.

Oh, and don't forget to update the kernel in the disk builder images with this code, too. No use running a big drive if you can't partition and format it properly to begin with.
