Andries,

I see that class is back in session. Would it be faster to write a
textbook and make us pay for LU (Linux University) course credit??

David,

Please trust that Andries is correct.

cat /proc/ide/hda/geometry
physical 26853/16/63
logical 1684/255/63
raw 16383/16/63
current 16383/16/63

These are additions that I put into a kernel to show folks that Andries is
correct and telling the truth.

I own Andries an endless apology for that mess of mapping physical->raw
and logical->current.
