I'm trying to install NetBSD on an older P100 system with a Samsung 560MB
HDD.  However, NetBSD detects the drive strangely.

It gets the geometry right (heads/cyls/sectors) but comes up with very large
negative numbers for the capacity (megabytes) and the total number of
sectors on the drive.

I've tried forcing the geometry in netbsd, putting on a fresh new MBR,
messing with the BIOS, etc, all to no avail.

Any suggestions?
