    The OS Restore CD probably isn't recognizing the disk 
    configuration, and is defaulting to the ancient config.

    It sounds like Tim will try to come up with something 
    elegant.  I would use fdisk to grow the partition, and
    resize2fs to tweak the file system.  Needless to say,
    this is a dangerous operation.  Typo's can trash the
    disk. 

    If you are swapping the hard drive, be sure to find a
    disk with about the same power consumption as we ship.
