Hope this one comes through

what happened to the offset value ie. ofs=d202
Rb Super used to use this for disk partitions. is it picked up by lltc3  
instead?

I do see in the SuperDriver docs how to set the offset for partitions. 
using: wpc and ofs dmode values. I take it this still holds true?

Also I read that nitros9 writes the disk info total sectors, sides, etc 
on LSN 0.  Could it be I need to reformat my scsi drives with the new 
distribution for it all to work correctly?
