Two questions: - If I read Documentation/devices.txt correctly, this would appear to be the second SCSI disk, second [primary] partition. This is a problem, since that partition doesn't exist -- there's a single primary partition on that drive, containing 4 logical partitions. - Secondly, how can I identify the relevant bit of the disk that wants rewriting? Is the fld=0x... the offset on the drive, or the partition, or what?
