I'm a bit rusty on this sort of thing but you have to be very careful 
with CHS translations. If the algorithm used at format/write time is not 
the same as the algorithm used at read time then you will get issues 
such as this. eg you can get problems formatting and filling a disk on a 
machine with AMI BIOS and then trying to boot it on a machine with a 
Phoenix BIOS.
