Just about a month ago, I had a 14gb RAID box attached to one of my
NetBSD systems. It was the type that appears as a single SCSI disk to
the host. There was a single filesystem taking up the entire space. We
can do that because we use 64-bit off_t's, as opposed to the 32-bit off_t
(well, long) that SunOS used.
