Do a "make menuconfig" and under "Block devices" the last option is "[ ] Support for Large Block Devices". From the help: x CONFIG_LBD: x x x x Say Y here if you want to attach large (bigger than 2TB) discs to x x your machine, or if you want to have a raid or loopback device x x bigger than 2TB. Otherwise say N. x I don't know if it has been backported to 2.4.x, but seems reasonable.
