My BIOS won't tell me what C/H/S settings are being used, just size in MB, but I caught the C/H/S settings from the boot kernel (1024/240/63). However, I also found the data sheet for my hard drive, and although I'm not sure how to decipher it, I'm pretty sure the boot kernel C/H/S settings were incorrect. Here is the URL for the data sheet... http://www.storage.ibm.com/hardsoft/diskdrdl/travel/14gsdata.htm - d. P.S. How do I specify C/H/S to the kernel? All my attemps yielded something like "kernel not found at <C/H>" or other. Thanks in advance!
