hi

With tinybsd i experianced some problems using more types of cf-disk and
harddisks. Diskinfo gave diffent info per disk. I really want to use one
image for disk. 

the succeded by changing some of settings in tinybsd

mdconfig -a -t vnode -f ${VNODEFILE} -x ${SECTRACK} -y ${TRACKCYL}

to

mdconfig -a -t vnode -f ${VNODEFILE} -s ${SECTUNIT}

(and some more minor things with fdisk and boot0cfg)

The blow patch leaves all old ways of doing intact
but adds some functionality using other settings: 

http://martenvijn.nl/tinybsd/tinybsd-0.6.1_script_patch.txt

just apply the patch and run tinybsd for more info.



cheers,

Marten
