It was my belief that the one with my unit had both on the disk. I
could not do anything with it from the ADU utilites or the Format
command from the Finder.

What finally did the trick for me was to format it from the RamFAST
Utilities. This gave me five equally sized partitions so I:

1. Used the arrow keys to make the size of the last two zero so they
   disappeared.

2. Used the arrow keys to make the first two 32768K and the third
   just a tad shy of 32768K (40 bytes or so).

Hope this helps some,
