option by a space, the correct form is for example '-u=cylinders'.
.TP
-\fB\-C\fR, \fB\-\-geom\-cylinders\fR \fInumber\fR
+\fB\-C\fR, \fB\-\-cylinders\fR \fInumber\fR
Specify the number of cylinders of the disk.
I have no idea why anybody would want to do so.
.TP
-\fB\-H\fR, \fB\-\-geom\-heads\fR \fInumber\fR
+\fB\-H\fR, \fB\-\-heads\fR \fInumber\fR
Specify the number of heads of the disk. (Not the physical number,
of course, but the number used for partition tables.)
Reasonable values are 255 and 16.
.TP
-\fB\-S\fR, \fB\-\-geom\-sectors\fR \fInumber\fR
+\fB\-S\fR, \fB\-\-sectors\fR \fInumber\fR
Specify the number of sectors per track of the disk.
(Not the physical number, of course, but the number used for
partition tables.) A reasonable value is 63.
