Hmm, tough call around if this should go in this forum or the A2 forum - I'll try here.

So my new (old) Apple IIe card for my LC turned up today so quick as a flash I fired up Apple HD Setup to repartition my HD to include a Prodos partition. Then I stopped and thunk. The documentation recommends no bigger than a 10MB prodos partition - is that just because back in the day they didnt figure us crazy fools would still be playing around with this stuff in 2008 and need or want a 32MB partition - or is there some limitation with the Apple IIe card for the LC to means its not a good idea to create a bigger one?

My HD is only 250MB, and who knows if I'd fill the 32MB partition - but I dont really want to fill up the 10MB one and then have to repartition again....

Cheers,
