I guess this is a problem of 4GB limit.

Do you have anything providing access to more than 4GB (NSDpatch, patched scsi.device)?

If not, you could make DH1: within the limit of 4GB only.

Tell us more what hardwareand ROM you have so we can point you to a suitable solution.

Everything about passing the 4GB barrier is explained here.

Your setup won't allow you to have more than 4GB, regardless if you are using SFS or not' without a patch for the scsi.device.

Why SFS ... I just want bigger partitions and seemed the most modern filesystem to me. If I am mistaken please enlighten me ;-)


I tried to explain you that it is not a problem with SFS, it's a problem with your device that needs to be patched to use more than 4GB on a hard drive.
It is the same problem with SFS, FFS or PFS here.

Just follow the instruction on the link to learn how to patch your system.
