hm, that is strange.
The reason I added the ntldr-fix was the 'ntdlr not found' situation we had 
pre 4.7

What kind of machines is this?
(chipset, maker)

And, yes there are only two error messages:
NTDLR not found
and something about corrupt something


And, yes they are in german, as I used what Mario had on site :-)

Im sure the ntldr-fixing is working, as we are at the end of a thinkpad  T61 
pushout here.
(On one of them I had to zero the mbr/partiton tabe to get it installed, but 
that was never starting the ntldr code.)

There may be hardware that are reporting wrong geometry via the EDD kernel 
module out there, or something else goes wrong.

You can see what disk geometry unattended reads from EDD on bootup, and that 
is what is being written to disk as well.
If youre hardware needs other values, you can set them from unattend.txt

oh, yes, some BIOS reports disk geometry from whats on disk!

you can also use "replace_mbr = 1" and see if that works, but I dont think it 
will.
