	In a followup to the previous posting i find that
	the '1295850' is 53x15x1630 which works out to
	53 sectors/track x15 tracks/cyl x1630 cyls
	
	So it seems 1 sector is held in reserve and 2 cylinders
	I don't know if this is the result of the system formatting
	defaults or the factory formatting. Anyhow - a '760meg disk'
	is really 600meg of usable system space.
