This is not needed for SCSI disks and IDE disks that are connected to an E-IDE-adapter, because the conversion (if necessary) is performed by the hardware. This works well with Linux.
Linux is not compatible with OnTrack-managers, as Linux does not use BIOS calls to access the harddisk! Results may be unpredictable!
At the present state the only solution to this is to disable the OnTrack-manager and let DOS use only the first 500 MB of the harddisk. Linux can be installed on the back part of the harddisk.
A further solution would be to install a EIDE-adapter, which does not cause any problems at all.
