Thanks to all the replies. Gives me some things to look into.
Also, brings up some questions,
With the older partitions showing that they start at 63?
If there are 63 sectors per track isn't that the last partition of the
previous track? Or did something change sector numbers starting
with 0? I know that sectors on the original disks and floppies
started at 1 and not zero? First computer had 8 sector 320K
floppies.
Now with the partition starting at 2048? Wouldn't that also be the
last sector of the first MB. Then there is were does the partition
MBR go?
Again, thanks for all the info.
