wow this is really great... but just for your information on my ibm notebook the output is this:
Disk parameter table(s) at vector 0x41 Disk0 Cylinders = 1024 Sectors = 63 Heads = 240 Write precomp = 255 Landing zone = 65296 Reserved bit 0 set Reserved bit 1 set Reserved bit 2 set More than 8 heads Reserved bit 4 set Defect map present Disable retries Disable retries Disk1 Cylinders = 1024 Sectors = 4 Heads = 16 Write precomp = 0 Landing zone = 0 Disk parameter table(s) at vector 0x46 Disk0 Cylinders = 34281 Sectors = 240 Heads = 230 Write precomp = 7950 Landing zone = 61 Reserved bit 2 set More than 8 heads Disable retries Disk1 Cylinders = 47631 Sectors = 102 Heads = 46 Write precomp = 3698 Landing zone = 7952 More than 8 heads Defect map present Disable retries
Just Note the "MAX" of 240 heads (very typical for IBM notebooks).
But anyway this tool is very useful for me. many, many thanks.
