Nope, I got a line wrap in the dd command. Fixing that and it works.

Ive attached the postinst.sh I use.
As I wrote in another post in this thread, I have no other machines that 
reports 240 heads, so for me it is safe to use this script.

A more correct solution is to put in a test in master/install.pl:
if SATA 
  and 
 $LEGACY_BIOS_HEAD <> 255 
then ask "Do a direct write fix in mbr and [that windowsthing]  y/n"

I do not have the time to code and test this right now..
We have all the information we need as environment variables in master,
so it should be doable.
If we could get what parted believe the head count should be and throw that 
into the tests, it would be even better.
