IDEDOS supports up to 65535 partitions on a hard disk, with a theoretical maximum partition size of 2TB. However IDEDOS does not support [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Block_Addressing LBA mode] therefore the hard disk capacity is limited to 128GB by the limitations of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder-head-sector CHS addressing].
