I have an ESDI disk with 69 physical sectors per track (i.e., more
than 63...).  I have run FreeBSD on the drive in non-translated
mode, but DOS simple can't handle a non-translated geometry for this
drive (comes out with 5 sectors/track...).  Is there any chance of
ever sharing this drive with FreeBSD, Linux, NetBSD, OS/2, Win95, NT,
or any other 32-bit operating system?
