Colin,
Something we're gonna have to start dealing with pretty soon:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=127996556318938&w=2
I wonder if there are some tests you can add to the BIOS test tool,
e.g., how to test for drives that have non-traditional block sizes,
large partition sizes, what boot partitions are useable, etc. Perhaps a
part of the test tool will have to run from the grub menu (like memtest).
