Hello,

I suppose it's possible that fdisk could clamp heads at 255 in passing
the geometry down, but the real solution is to allow more heads in the
geometry ioctl.

fdisk also happily accepts my larger value when I re-enter cylinder/head/track information.

(To sketch my setup:)

I'm using an iscsi LUN on a netapp filer in a Xen virtual domain.
On the xen-dom0 I have the iscsi lun available and pass it to my Xen virtual domain.

sfdisk also has problems reading out my geometry.  I reports nothing.


I'll kick it around upstream some.
