CVS commit: src/distrib/utils/sysinst



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   tsutsui
Date:           Sat May 26 05:09:59 UTC 2012

Modified Files:
        src/distrib/utils/sysinst: mbr.c

Log Message:
Fix regression by my dumb patch in PR/45990.

sysinst fails with "floating exception" after
changing MBR partition size in MBR editor menu
if the target disk doesn't have valid MBR partition
or has a valid partition 0 whose offset is not 1MB aligned
(like 63 sectors).

read_mbr() (which calls get_ptn_alignment()) is called
before set_bios_geom(), so bhead is not initialized there
and ptn_alignment could be zero.

To workaround, explicitly call get_ptn_alignment() again
in edit_mbr() to update ptn_alignemnt per BIOS geom values.
