Message-ID: <FD2AC9A020DDD51194710008C7089B20017F9DC3@dlee17.itg.ti.com> (raw)

In the partition dump I sent this bit was informational not an error (so it
would seem from a brief google search that I did, see
http://www.ata-atapi.com/hiwchs.htm ).  I do have an older dump which does
report errors when I tried to install on a partition which was to small
(included below).  I suspect some error may be tracked from that info.  My
skimming of that site seems to indicate that calculations of C/H/S are not
as standard as one would hope, and the safe way might be to use the bios
call (a thought from the hip based on a 5 minute skim).

Regards,

Richard W.
