    Hello. :)

    I'm trying to install SUSE 7.3 (standalone) with an 80GB 7200rpm
    (maxtor) hard disk and i cant recognize the complete storage space.

    I did a "fdisk /dev/hda" with both "solaris" and "dos" disklabes but it
    doesn't works. I can get only 74 or 32 GB total disk space.

    I know maybe this problem is caused for a hardware incompatibility,
    pherhaps there is a message in the log boot screen where the total size
    of the disk (80,084GB) and the physical number of
    cilinders (156,355,584) is reported.

    Can someone help me please? (sorry about my english)
