The hard drive is a Samsung 8.4 GB drive with Cyl 16383, Heads 16,
Sectors 63. It is partitioned into 6.5GB and 1.4 GB.
The machine haiku works on is an AMD Duron 750 MHz. It auto detects
the CHS which are on the hard drive.
On the 400 MHz machine (the one haiku does not boot on) it auto
detects Cyl 1027, Heads 255, Sectors 63, Mode LBA. With this set, I
get the "<No boot volume found>" in the Haiku bootloader. But if I
change the CHS to what is on the hard drive I get "Boot sector
signature not found."
