Ultra 10 and 40gb disk



Hello ,

I have a sparc ultra 10 with two hardisk ( 40 Gb / ATA ) .

hda: attached ide-disk driver.
hda: 78177792 sectors (40027 MB) w/1820KiB Cache, CHS=77557/16/63, (U)DMA
hdc: attached ide-disk driver.
hdc: 80418240 sectors (41174 MB) w/1916KiB Cache, CHS=79780/16/63, (U)DMA


I must use fdisk an make a 'Sun disk label' on the disk .

fdisk seem to have a limit at 65535 cylinders .

in my case , fdisk /dev/hdc :

| Select type (? for auto, 0 for custom): ?
| Select type (? for auto, 0 for custom): 0
| Heads (1-1024): 16
| Sectors/track (1-1024): 63
| Cylinders (1-65535): 79780
| Value out of range.

How I can specify more cylinders ?
