What is the best way to get it partitioned using the full 6GB. I am using a bog standard 3.1 installation and I am going to use SFS. Do I need to apply a patch to see the full 6GBs?


You could try IDEFix.  AFAIK it assigns your drives 2 Gig partitions and sidesteps the original 4.3GB limit on 3.1's FFS.  There is an aminet patch for FFS to access larger drives that you can apply to your existing setup.

Otherwise SFS might be the answer.  It can address partitions 4.3GB or larger so you should be okay there.
