With regards your disk...
Are you using Minix file system type? if so, this is limited to 64Mb.
(as far as I'm aware)
Try using the ext filesystem type;
                                                                            
ie;
                                                                            
mkefs -c /dev/hda0 `blocks /dev/hda0`
;; the blocks command is fairly standard and returns the number of blocks
;; on a device. (note the back quote)
mount -text /dev/hda0 /<whatever>
