OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!

mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.

I would put Sparc in a separate section to x86.
With Sparc you are limited to 2TB drives so the expansion limits for x86 aren't really relevant.
Furthermore for Sparc:
1. If you last did a factory default on RAIDiator 3.x or earlier you cannot expand past 5TB. You need to do a factory default, preferably on the latest firmware.
2. If you last did a factory default on 4.1.6 or earlier you should consider updating to newer firmware and doing a factory default if moving to using one or more 4k sector disks.
