Cloning a disk pt2

[Ash Wyllie]

Here is output from fdisk, booting from the internal drive.

ashw at ashw-laptop:~$ sudo fdisk /dev/sda
[sudo] password for ashw: 

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 14593.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
