look this fdisk output:

NetBSD disklabel disk geometry:
cylinders: 963 heads: 8 sectors/track: 32 (256 sectors/cylinder)

... ok

Partition table:

what??

this 120mb disk has been formatted with w95 
but fdisk does not see the correct msdos partition

look this "disklabel sd0" output

# /dev/rsd0d:

  g: 1398362912 538989391     unused        0     0         # (Cyl. 2105427*- 7567782*)

this disk works  correctly on w95, but netbsd look 
this stupid values...

thanks in advance
