Unfortunately, the box was DOA so took the SCSI drives and controller out
and put them into an older AMD-K6/333.  Works fine with Windoze, however
when installing eCS and attempting to make a 16GB boot partition, I get a
message saying that the system does not support that.  However, it works
fine under Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
