My BIOS does not support hard disk over 8.4 GB. But WINDOWS 98 detects
hard disks over 8.4GB. My problem is if I am planing to install multiple
operating systems(WIN98,Linux,WINNT) then will there be a problem?.
I aked a friend and he told me that there won't be problem unless
I put all the boot sectors within 8.4 GB

You could use a 20 gig hard drive as long as you create partitions that do no excede the limit set by your system board. You can divide the space on the hard drive up like c:\=8.4 gig d:\=8.4 gig e:\=8.4 gig f:\=2 gig etc. till you fill your hard drive.
