No problem.

Does this look good?

Yep. That looks perfect (for me). Thanks.

But then the -C option in the manpage should be updated as well.
The question is whether we need that option at all (FreeBSD doesn't has 
this option and I never had problems on any computer)?
Hm, will newer BIOSes use Large mode even if CHS values are specified?
