Maybe we talked about IBM partitions before, but I forgot all about them. Wonder why this strange convoluted code is necessary. For example, I am worried a little by your need to call HDIO_GETGEO. For IDE and SCSI disks, the geometry that is returned depends on the phase of the moon and similar things. But maybe you use it only for dasd* disks? Is there a bug in dasd_eckd_fill_geometry()? It seems that it sometimes fails to set geo->sectors, but you use geo->sectors in cchh2blk() and family.
