Hello, I am trying to install a 540 MB in my ThinkPad 500. I can only get
it to see a max of  515MB.
I am losing 25MB!
I know there is a trick but haven't been able to do it.

My plans are to split my drive in 2 partions (270 & 270MB) , I want to load
DOS/WIN95 on one half & LINUX on the other half.

How do I get the TP500 to see th ewhole 540MB?

thanks!
