SDA is a 6,4gb HD with 12594960 sectors .... (with 6449mb size as shown
in dmesg)
but when i run pdisk or try to format it using disk initializer via
MacOS , they detect this 6,4gb hard disk as a 6,1gb hard disk , what can
it be?
here goes a output of pdisk running:
-----
[root@Carlos root]# pdisk /dev/sda
Edit /dev/sda -
Command (? for help): p
Partition map (with 512 byte blocks) on '/dev/sda'

2: Apple_Free Extra 12594895 @ 64 ( 6.0G)

DeviceType=0x0, DeviceId=0x0

can someone help me ?
