Syntax
#include <disktab.h>
Description
The file is a simple data base that describes disk geometries and disk partition characteristics. The format is patterned after the termi-
nal data base. Entries in consist of a number of fields separated by colons (:). The first entry for each disk gives the names that are
known for the disk, separated by vertical bars (|). The last name given should be a long name fully identifying the disk.
The following list indicates the normal values stored for each disk entry:

nc num Total number of cylinders on the disk
ba num Block size for partition `a' (bytes)
bd num Block size for partition `d' (bytes)

bh num Block size for partition `h' (bytes)
