[LUG] Fujitsu MO drive



I'm trying to use a Fujitsu 230Mb MO drive via a PCMCIA interface.  It seems to 
recognise it as a hard disk and wacks it on /dev/hdc.  Which is great except that 
fdisk complains that there isn't a valid partition table (maybe because they are Mac 
formatted?).  So I create a new DOS partition table and create a new partition 
table, but then if I print/verify the partition table it says:

"Paritition 1 has different physical/logical endings"
"phys=(768,0,20) logical=(0, 0, 1332180)

"Parition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary"
"phys=(768,0,20), should be (768, 0, 1332180)"

Any ideas?

Jon
