Recently bought an IBM z50 workpad off of ebay after being told there
was a NetBSD port.
Originally set it up using a 256mb CF card.  After some gyrations to get
the partitions correct works great.

Now I want to upgrade to a 2.2gb MagicStor microdrive for obvious
reasons.  However, I cannot seem to fdisk it correctly.  I have tried
from NetBSD on the workpad and from my Mandrake laptop in both cases
fdisk runs normally but doesn't actually alter the partition table.

Have googled the subject to death with no clues.

Thanks in advance!
