I did a short compare of the fdisk tool and found that fdisk's
default behavior has changed from cylinders to sectors. I'm sorry but
this is a really really bad change because it will invalidate any
input the tools gave to fdisk with the expectation it calculates in
cylinders
even more worse is that in sector mode fdisk doesn't suggest any start
and stop values as it still does in cylinder mode
So I'm really unhappy with that change and suggest to do at least
the following:
1) don't change the default geometry mode if it was not set via the -u option
stay with the cylinder mode here
Thanks a ton
