Hi, Our custom board (supports PPC 440 and Linux 2.4.19 with XFS filesystem) has an ATA/IDE hard drive on it. The hard drive is partitioned into two MS-DOS partitions by the "parted" utility. From the content of the MBR, I found that the first partition starts at sector 0x20. Now, the questions are: 1) Can I use sectors 1-0x20 to store private data? 2) Will current version or future versions of Linux use these sectors?
Thank you. Regards, Terry L. ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
