Hi...

If somebody has been wondering, this is the offending code in
STATIC int LBA_Get_Drive_Parameters(int drive, struct DriveParamS *driveParam)
...
  DebugPrintf(("drive parameters %02x - %04lu-%u-%u",
               drive,
               driveParam->chs.Cylinder,
               driveParam->chs.Head, driveParam->chs.Sector));

The %04lu is wrong, as chs.Cylinder is a 16bit value (at most 1023).


PS: PLEASE shorten the fnode related debug messages! It is not
okay to have four lines of them for each single file that is
touched by a simple DIR. Four strings are okay, though, but not
all of those strings may contain line breaks at the end. Plus
a GENERAL request: Keep debug messages short. They do not have
to mention the full function name. A short unique string is enough
to find the source of the debug message in the source code files.
