Hello.

I've tried to install NetBSD on old HP NetServer w/ 1GB HDDs. Standard
model is x/64/32 for C/H/S values and BIOS uses this model. I can change
geometry in fdisk, but disklabel (later) rewrites w/ "real" 2700/9/84 values.
Therefore I get "No operation system" or "Bad magic" after rebooting.
I don't find workaround. I'd tried OpenBSD's disklabel and leave these
partitions untouched by NetBSD installator, but it doesn't help.

If this issue has solution, please, cc me. I'm not on list.
