I wonder if anyone out there is a happy owner of a Seagate ST1100
ST412/MFM hard disk (manufactured by Imprimis;  model 94355-100).
The disk has 1072 cyls and 9 heads.  I need to patch these values
to BIOS since it recognizes only 1024 cyls.

What are the correct values for the following other parameters:

- PreComp (0xFFFF, 0x0000 or ...)
- ECC
- Landing Zone (1071 ?)


Any help greatly apprecieted.
