Im having the same problem! instead o a 4GB its a 1GB cruzer mini

Now look at the number of sectors per track, if that is NOT 32 you will need to change it to 32.

how do I change it to 32?

I have Disk /dev/sda: 993 cylinders, 32 heads, 63 sectors/track

993*32*63 = 2001888

now when it says

Using 32 calculate the number of cylinders if you use the current number of heads. total_sectors / 32 / number_of_heads = no_of_cylinders.

I also don't quite understand: should I do 2001888/32(as if it were 32, the sectors p/ track are 63)/32 ? then its 1954.96875

what am I missig here? please ..

thanks in advance
