Hehe, but T20 BIOS doesn't support LBA services (why when it use only a small flashdisk).
Anyway yesterday night I spent with messing with FD kerner 2038cvs sources,
I enabled debug output to see whats happening, I fixed some bugs
in printing and total sectors calculation and the most important I had
to hardcode nUnits = 3 in initdisk.c because it accidentally rised to 551 -
I have no idea why but then it works!

I'm in contact with Eric Auer so I hope he give me some explanation
and fix it much better.
