Not true.  The limitation to 30GB was due to an outdated version of 
sfdisk (which writes the partition table onto the disk) on the older 
OSRCD images.  The latest image of the RaQ4 OSRCDs on 
ftp://ftp.cobalt.sun.com/pub/iso/ have been fixed to allow any size 
drive to work.

Note that the RaQ 3 OSRCD was _not_ fixed.  But given the extra 
goodies you get with the RaQ 4 payload, I don't know why anyone would 
choose to restore their box with the RaQ 3 CD...
