Not true, two weeks ago I temporarily set up slink on WD 13GB. What you need
to know is the final cylinder. In my case, I partition it with windows first,
tha box come with windows. So I know the final cylinder, ie 1581. In
slink-fdisk, I use x then c to set cylinder to 1581.
BTW, I used LBA mode in BIOS.
