Hi,
Anyone know how to reset the geometry of a hard disk ?
One of my disks is reporting an invalid number of sectors since taking it out of a RAID0 array and just trying to use it individually....
below looks odd
fdisk /dev/hdf
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/hdf: 1 heads, 390721968 sectors, 1 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 390721968 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdf1 1 1 195360983+ 83 Linux
Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
phys=(512, 0, 48) logical=(0, 0, 390721968)
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary:
phys=(512, 0, 48) should be (512, 0, 390721968)
