Support for partitions larger than 2.2 TB with BIOS

Installations can now be configured to boot from hard drive partitions larger than 2.2 TB using select BIOS models that support the newer GUID Partition Table (GPT). Legacy BIOS implementations previously limited ability to use large partitions on systems that were not using the newer Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI).
The initial ramdisk file on 64-bit PowerPC and 64-bit IBM POWER Series systems is now named initrd.img. In previous releases, it was named ramdisk.image.gz.
