AHDI and all good hard disc drivers have no problem handling the lrecno extension
to Rwabs so reading/writing large discs is no problem. However TOS cannot use FAT32
only FAT16 and FAT12. In this case it is meerly the "XFS's" fault.

But then again TOS4.04 is five years old and the filesystem in TOS4 is AFAIK
only a bugfixed version of the fs in TOS2.06/3.06.

Just to clarify (hopefully)
