Do all current Asus motherboards have a 48-bit LBA-compatible BIOS? I
would expect so but couldn't find any mention of that spec on the Asus
web page.

"Note: Model manufactured after 1st January, 2003 will all
support 48bit HDD (137 GB HDD)."

I assume " (137 GB HDD)" means anything larger than that up to the
limits of 48-bit LBA, yes?
