What size hard drive for A1200?

Hi,

Hold on! You say 3.1 Rom will only take a 2GB partition?
I have a 3GB partition and have not done a software patch at all.

So if this true my setup should not work. Or does the trouble come when I write to a block beyond the 2GB limit. I recall reading something about a variable overflow within the software destroying your......what is it named on amiga....FAT?

In that case all is well.

I did partition the drive using my 2.1 bootdisk from my A600. I quess that means 2.1 supports 4GB partitions aswell.
