Type the numbers found from the BIOS separates by forward slashes. Is the wording of "separates" here gramatically correct? This phrase can be easily understood even without the following example, but I could not figure out what the subject of "separates", and got a little bit confused when translating it. 5000 heads, 250 sectors and 60 sectors would be entered as 5000/250/60 5000 cylinders, 250 heads and 60 sectors? >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-doc->ceri Responsible-Changed-By: ceri Responsible-Changed-When: Wed Sep 22 14:57:00 GMT 2004 Responsible-Changed-Why: Grab this. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=71998 From: Dmitry Morozovsky To: Hiroo Ono Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: docs/71998: Possible mistake in FAQ.
