Fdisk Question



I have been struggling with OpenBSD's fdisk for quite some time and I
finally feel like I have it down. However, there is still one thing which
eludes me.

I have a hard drive that is 14,669MB in size. On this hard drive, in
partition 0, I created a 6144MB (6GB) A6 bootable partition, leaving 8,525MB
unused.

How do I go about using the remaining 8,525MBs of disk space? If I created
one partition the size of remaining space, it would extend past the BIOS
limitations.

Please note that I created the six GB parition just to make sure that I can
create bootable OpenBSD paritions. My BIOS and fdisk limits me to the first
8024MBs of the disk, due to fdisk having to use BIOS disk information.

Thanks,

Jeff
