Hi, I was wondering why xbox linux does not support the "LBA48" partitioning 
scheme designed by Paul Bartholomew (oz_paulb) (I'm at a loss to find a 
better name for it). It would be useuful for me because then I could divide 
up my 80Gb HDD sensibly between the xbox OS and linux.

Would anyone object to patches for it? I'd imagine it would be a patch to 
cromwell and linux itself (since cromwell accesses the partitions raw - using 
my code, I'm slightly amused to notice :) ).
