I have a problem running 640MB 2048 bytes/sector MO's with linux.
Linux says "non supported sector size" when initialising the drive.

Studiing kernel scsidisk-driver sd.c I found that the current driver 
doesn't support more than 1024 bytes/sector. Does sb have/find a
solution 
for this problem ?

These medias are obviously the only (non-CDROM-) 2048-byte-SCSI-medias
existing up to now.

Thanks, Robert
