        ACK, thanks!

        Actually, I do.  CHS addressing (as used in MBR, even if along
        with LBA) seems to me a bit obsolete (for at least a decade),
        thus I've moved to use GPT for all the new media almost as soon
        as I've discovered it.

        Sometimes, I have to use gptsync(8), though.
