hda has changed heads

[Michael Dreher <dreher _at_ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

under 2.5.50 I got the following (sorry for localization):


karpfen:/home/dreher # uname -a
Linux karpfen 2.5.50 #1 Sun Dec 1 21:51:57 CET 2002 i686 unknown

karpfen:/home/dreher # fdisk -l

Festplatte /dev/hda: 255 Kfe, 63 Sektoren, 4998 Zylinder
Einheiten: Zylinder mit 16065 * 512 Bytes

    Ger舩 boot.  Anfang      Ende    Blke   Id  Dateisystemtyp
/dev/hda1             1        20    160618+  82  Linux Swap
/dev/hda2   *        21       256   1895670    6  FAT16

/dev/hda5          3913      4998   8723263+   b  Win95 FAT32
karpfen:/home/dreher # exit


On the other hand, under 2.5.54 (and 2.5.56) I get


karpfen:/usr/src/linux # uname -a
Linux karpfen 2.5.54 #2 Thu Jan 2 22:47:22 CET 2003 i686 unknown

karpfen:/usr/src/linux # fdisk -l

Festplatte /dev/hda: 16 Kfe, 63 Sektoren, 79656 Zylinder
Einheiten: Zylinder mit 1008 * 512 Bytes

    Ger舩 boot.  Anfang      Ende    Blke   Id  Dateisystemtyp
/dev/hda1             1       319    160618+  82  Linux Swap
Partition 1 endet nicht an einer Zylindergrenze:
     phys=(19, 254, 63) should be (19, 15, 63)
/dev/hda2   *       319      4080   1895670    6  FAT16
Partition 2 endet nicht an einer Zylindergrenze:
     phys=(255, 254, 63) should be (255, 15, 63)
/dev/hda3          4081     62348  29366820   83  Linux
Partition 3 endet nicht an einer Zylindergrenze:
     phys=(1023, 254, 63) should be (1023, 15, 63)
/dev/hda4         62348     79656   8723295    5  Erweiterte
Partition 4 endet nicht an einer Zylindergrenze:
     phys=(1023, 254, 63) should be (1023, 15, 63)
/dev/hda5         62348     79656   8723263+   b  Win95 FAT32


Basically, I dont care about the new number of heads, but now lilo
complains like this (it did not complain before):

karpfen:/etc # lilo
Added testing *
Added linux
Added failsafe
Added linux-2.5.54
Added linux-2.5.50
Device 0x0300: Invalid partition table, 2nd entry
  3D address:     1/0/20 (20160)
  Linear address: 1/12/318 (321300)
karpfen:/etc #




Best wishes,
Michael
