There arise a problem by updating Sun_OS 3.0 to Sun_OS 4.0.3 .
After doing this we can't format our disk. We want to format the
disk with following Parameters :
	817 cylinders , 2 alternates
This is impossible and the error occurs by writing back the bad
block list and the label on the last two cylinders. We got some
hints to solve this problem by decreasing the numbers of the
cylinders, this has no effect.

The disk is a  Fujitsu M2246E and it seems to be a special
problem of this disk.

	Thanks for hints and proved solutions
