The CFFA provides up to 4 32MB partitions, the remaining partition(s) is
HFS. So, a 128MB has four partitons of 32MB each (can be ProDOS or HFS).
I use a 192MB CF and a 256MB CF in my CFFA's. So, each has 4 32Meg
partitons, and a 64MB or 128MB HFS partition. Somehwere around 1GB it
starts gaining more HFS partitions but I am too lazy to look up the
details. This fixed partitioning scheme is not restrictive at all. The
CFFA is a must have for serious A2 users. (IMHO) Ten thousand+ pennies
will be enough so keep your nose to the ground. There a lot of pennies
lying around. ;-)
