Still one important step is missing:

0. Install SFS in the RDB of the drive
1. I create a small SFS partition for Workbench 3.1 (100megs)
2. Install Workbench 3.1
3. Install IDEFIX
3a. edit s:startup-sequence and replace c:idefix by c:loadide reset
4. Create SFS partitions of any size, including >4gib
5. Run check4gb to ensure everything is ok
6. Fill them with goodies :)

If you leave out step 3a, IDEfix does nothing for you.

Note that IDEfix is shareware which nags with registration requesters. There is a free solution, too, but it is more complicated to install. The files needed are:
