Does anyone have details of the disk geometry of DEC's RZ26L disk to hand,
please?

I want to install one (in a StorageWorks cabinet) to my Alpha/Multia. fdisk
asks me to give the head/sector/cylinder specification before it will
partition
the disk. I have cylinders = 2570 and sectors = 57*14*2570 = 2050860, but I
cannot find out how many heads the drive has.

Thanks in adavnce
