This may or may not be a problem, but I'm getting a bunch of messages from 
fdisk about incorrect partition boundaries.

As per the README on the FTP I've blanked out the SD card and done

$ dd if=512mbsd-latest.dd of=/dev/sdd

and when I try to list the partitions I get

--------

Disk /dev/sdd: 2032 MB, 2032664576 bytes
63 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1016 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 3906 * 512 = 1999872 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000

Partition 1 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
     phys=(0, 4, 13) logical=(0, 4, 9)
Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(17, 2, 30) logical=(2, 10, 16)
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.

     phys=(16, 12, 25) logical=(4, 16, 25)
Partition 3 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(19, 13, 58) logical=(5, 2, 58)
Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary.

Partition 4 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
     phys=(50, 7, 6) logical=(6, 22, 33)
Partition 4 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(1023, 7, 61) logical=(253, 40, 22)
Partition 4 does not end on cylinder boundary.

the SD card I'm using here shows up as 64MB larger than the one supplied by TS 
so these warnings don't really surprise me.

What I'm wondering is if I can safely ignore these or better yet is there a way 
to remedy them?

Thanks.
