Thanks for the DF clarification and your quick response. The Hurd is
awfully cool by the way. You guys have done a great job.

I though that Mach would respond to the GETPARMS message by filling in a
data structure with the drive's geometry. In fact, it seems that was the
source for earlier incompatibility, i.e., if you use an old GNUMach version
with a modern Hurd system, you'll get the "device too small for superblock"
error message upon booting.
If I'm mistaken, is there some modification that I could make to Mach to
support the return of disk geometry? Let me know if I can help.
