Assuming that you will be happy with multiple Disk Basic partitions, refer to
http://www.frontiernet.net/~mmarlette/Cloud-9/Support/Using%20Large%20Hard%20Drives.pdf

It is unlikely that you will need multiple OS-9 partitions as the OS can address 
$FFFFFF or 16,777,215 sectors. That's over 4G at 256 bytes per sector. It would 
be much simpler to use several different OS-9 formatted hard drives if more room 
is needed.
