can anyone who has this isntalled, send me copies of the block 0 of their disk, and a description of the disk's geometry as seen by the BIOS and by BSD..? Does anyone know the answers to the folowing questions? (BDE?) 1/ does ontrack just use '63' as the start of it's section or does it use the start of the 2nd cylinder? 2/ does it write teh start location of it's bit in it's MBR entry? does it set the END entries correctly? maybe with enough examples I can andswer these questions definatively. I'm most of the way through writing a disk subsystem to replace the diskslice wd/sd fdisk/disklabel mess we have at the moment.. (though it's a great improvement over what we had originally) thanks
