Yes, I know, how silly can I be?

when I started 6 hours ago, bios said the hd was LBA UD33 136gb and
winxp formatted 152618mb. 152.618GB. OK.

now that I've killed the 1st install that did not complete,
winxp is now formatting 152617mb. 152.617GB.  Hmm.....?

Where did I loose 1mb of disk space?
Should I tool-wash the hd again?

Sounds like a difference in calculating MB and GB to me.
