During boot time it is detected as a M1606-512 with the following geo info: C:3457 H:6 "and an average of 102 sectors/track" The problem I have is that the Geometry is wrong:-( I purchased it from a company far away and didn't receive a manual or any documentation. While using sysinstall I get an error about the geometry being wrong. I am just curious if anyone out there may have a the same drive and who would be nice to send me the geo info. PLEASE!!!!! Didn't think about this until now, but: Would it be the correct and obvious thing to do to use the boot info:-) thanx chris
