Hello,

I have been struglling with sysinstall, attempting to make it handle
the geometry of some large SATA drives. After a lot of effort I
decided to stop suffering and modified the program in order to
circumvent the outdated limit of 65535 cylinders (see attached patch).
I'm thinking about submitting a PR with a change request but I'd like
to get some additional opinions first. I did not test it in "batch"
mode, so it would be great if any kind soul did this.

Thanks in advance for your comments and/or suggestions.
