Message-ID: <4CA28823.8050103@cfl.rr.com> (raw)
Is there a command I'm missing to print the int 13 information provided
by the bios to diagnose possible errors? I have a user on the Ubuntu
forums that is getting an "error: out of disk" and rescue shell.
Looking at the code it seems this would be caused by a partition being
outside the disk, but that does not appear to be the case. The only
other explanation I can come up with is that the bios is reporting the
wrong size for the disk, but I'm not sure how to test for this.
