Hi;

FWIW, I use a very old PC of the type where the processor will not be 
fixed by Intel and that still needs support for the traditional BIOS. I 
also bought a 3TB HD (they were easier to find that 2T).

If I leave the disk dedicated to FreeBSD it recognizes the complete 3TB 
and will happily use ZFS for everything, however I want to dual boot so 
after lots of testing I ended up ignoring 1 TB of HD :(.

It does happen that there is a really nice boot loader that could have 
saved the day but it is very difficult to install standalone:

Just in case someone has the time and inclination to play with it :)

Pedro.
