It would be interesting to confirm definitively that the different
alignment is what's causing this, and not something else. I've been
planning to add a preseedable option for final release that would allow
you to select cylinder alignment rather than optimal alignment; while
this isn't ideal, it would allow you to test this quite quickly.
The other option is to go back to cylinder alignment by default when the
disk doesn't advertise anything in particular, but I'm reluctant to make
that change since apparently it can cause compatibility problems with
newer versions of Windows.
