Subject: [build] Use explicit disk geometry for generated FAT filesystem images
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=05d7591a71274349d17845a955f0d7d486a9634b;p=thirdparty%2Fipxe.git

[build] Use explicit disk geometry for generated FAT filesystem images

For FAT filesystem images larger than a 1.44MB floppy disk, round up
the image size to a whole number of 504kB cylinders before formatting.
This avoids losing up to a cylinder's worth of expected space in the
filesystem image.
