   Thanks. So really all I need to do is make sure that   
   when I write or obtain an fdisk utility, I need to make   
   sure that all partitions are aligned on an 8-sector   
   boundary.   
      
   There's no need for me to change existing PDOS itself,   
   even though it has 512 sectors only.
