We just bought a 4.3 gig quantum grandprix scsi II drive and were
installing debian on it but we ran into some trouble using cfdisk on it
It would give an error when we made more than 8 partitions and tried
writing the partition table.

We worked around this by going to a shell and using fdisk instead.
