Why even bother with CHS at all, could we set them to all 1's which
should mean they will be ignored.

CHS are obsolete anyway (arent they?), why not just use LBA ?

I was wonderign abotu this the other day, is there anything bad about
havign a non-alighed partitiion that justifies even a warning ?

I mean having a non aligned partition doesnt make the partition unusable
does it, it just mean other partition program spit out ugly messages.

maybe i missing a piece fo the puzzle though.
