-        Cylinder/Head/Size Hell Is Not Over

-Nowadays, you can boot Linux without ever relying on CHS
-(Cylinder/Head/Size):
-
-- CHS information on partition table is obsolete and not used anymore.
-It was causing the 1024th cylinder limitation:
-  - disallowing partitions above 8GiG. Problem overcome using 28bits Linear
-  Block Addressing (LBA) in partition table.
-  - disallowing to boot on partition above 8GiG (due to int13 limitation used
-  in bootloaders). Problem overcome using int13 extensions (EDD)
-
-Logical CHS (Cylinder/Head/Size) and physical CHS are not related anymore.
-Especially the size of a hard drive is not a multiple of the number of
-Cylinders.
-
-
-The problem is that many tools still rely somewhat heavily on CHS information.
-- most tools adjust partitions on cylinder boundary
-- some tools compute the size of the disk based on CHS (eg: fdisk)
-
-
-Resulting problems in various tools:
-
-- last partition not cylinder boundary adjusted, and overrun CHS computed size
-  - fdisk
-    > Total allocated sectors %d greater than the maximum %d
-  - cfdisk (need confirmation)
-    > FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition %d: Partition ends after end-of-disk
-    or
-    > FATAL ERROR: Bad logical partition %d: Partition ends after end-of-disk
-  - Partition Magic (version?)
-    > Error #109: Partition ends after end of disk
-  - Windows <= 98se, Windows Me
-    (doesn't like it, what error message?)
-
-  Tools handling it correctly:
-  - parted and so diskdruid in RedHat >= 7.2 (or is it 7.x?)
-  - diskdrake >= Mandrake 8.2
-  - Windows XP (need confirmation)
-
-  Tools using the full size of the disk, and so causing pbs with fdisk/cfdisk/...:
-  - diskdrake == Mandrake 8.2
-
-- disagreement between CHS and linear address
-  - parted
