You are correct sir, this looks much better, I should have known better.


Disk /dev/sdc: 4127 MB, 4127195136 bytes
16 heads, 32 sectors/track, 15744 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 = 262144 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdc1               1       15744     4030448    c  W95 FAT32 (LBA)

Meaningful data that I can understand!
