The hdd is a 160gb sata drive Does not look right.. The only values I can remember that I have seen on a modern system: heads: 255 and 240 sectors: 63 > > > If you dont override the > > fix_disk_geo_heads = > > fix_disk_geo_sectors = > > settings in unattend.txt the 'legacy BIOS' heads/sectors will be written > > into the 'active' partition. > > I'm not overriding these. Setting them like this: fix_disk_geo_heads = "" fix_disk_geo_sectors = "" And parted's idea of disk geometry will be used, or setting them to the values above..
