I'm a bit confused.
I tried to read partition info from hex-dump of first block and compare that
with the values from /var/log/installer/partman ...
According to partition info from wiki the biggest number of chs is 0x3FF,
which is 1023 decimal - and partman output contains entries like:
(91201,0,0) (91201,80,62)
So is there another way to interpret entries from partition table?
kind regards
Gero
