The long number 27000000 stands for the frequency, I mean the pixelclock.=
 I don't know exactly how it splits for horizontal and vertical frequenci=
es, but if you increase this number the frequencies come up and to the ot=
her direction they become smaller. =

For me the 27000000 worked good, I became around 32kHZ/63Hz.

I have an A2000/Blizzard 060 96MB RAM/ECS 1MB Chip/PicassoIV/OS 3.1/IBM &=
 Quantum HD's, ZIP-Drive/

If you have more than 32MB RAM you have to limit it by the -m option to a=
round 40MB, elswhere I had a problem too, with the booting.
