The largest partition that GS/OS is capable of handling is 4 GB.
However, I don't think there is any FSTs (File System Translators)
available for GS/OS that go this high.
The DOS 3.3 FST, which is read only, should have a max partition size
of 400 KB but is most likely limited to 140 KB as that is the standard
5.25" floppy disk size.
The Pascal FST, which is read only, should have a max partition size
of 32 MB.
The MS-DOS FST, which is read only, I'm not sure what the max
partition size is but I would think it is either 256 MB or 2 GB.
The ProDOS FST has a maximum partition size of 32 MB
The HFS FST has a maximum partition size of 2 GB.
I have no idea what the maximum partition sizes are for the High
Sierra (ISO 9660) FST or AppleShare FST.
