Disk /dev/sdb - 1000 GB / 931 GiB - CHS 121601 255 63
Analyse cylinder 102429/121600: 84%
HPFS - NTFS 0 32 33 32236 69 25 517873664 [NJSD]
HPFS - NTFS 32363 192 22 76982 125 7 716800000 [NewV]
HPFS - NTFS 83356 151 60 147097 67 42 1023993856 [GIS]

I have the same problem with "harddisk seems too small".

I do not know how to resolve this but looking at the scan - the cylinder size is 121600 while my partition of [GIS] is 83356 to 147097.
