Oracle VM Server 3.2.8 Installation

[root@OVS1 ~]# fdisk /dev/sda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 38913.

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)

Command (m for help): p

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders
