Hi,
I've got a 3Ware 9500 12 Harware RAID controller that is full of 25GB
S-ATA drives (total storage = 2.75TB). To my 64bit FC3 box, this looks
like a single huge SCSI disk (/dev/sda). I used parted to create GPT
partitions on it, (because nothing else would work on a volume that
big). This seems to work fine, except that grub doesn't seem to
recognize GPT partitions.
So here's my question: Does anyone know a way to boot from huge volumes
(where "huge" = >2TB)? even if it doesn't involve grub, or GPT, I'm
open to suggestions. Any clues?
Thanks!

oops, make that "12 250GB drives" sorry about that.
