disk geometry: msg#00017gnu.parted.bugs
Thanks for all the replies to my last post Running "parted" from RH7.2 rescue mode (with my adaptec integrated PERC, in case it matters), I get the following "Warning: the operating system thinks the geometry on /dev/sda is 2212/255/63. Therefore, cylinder 1024 ends at 8032.499M. You should check that this matches the BIOS geometery before using this program." Unfortunately these numbers do not appear to be available through my bios and are not physically written on the drive either... Are there any utilities out there to get this? (I presume I can't use any linux commands since Linux is whats misinterpreting the size?) |
