I am facing an issue with fdisk (gnu-fdisk): fdisk doesn't allow me to enter the right sector values. When I enter the values mentionned in the pdf and accept modifications proposed by fdiskI get senseless partition values:
Disk /dev/sdb: 500 GB, 500105249280 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders

Can you give me a workaround or some softwart that can do the job?
