I see similar mismatches with a 'phone memory card. Could you try
opening in fdisk and toggling the "dos compatability" flag?

I don't think I can do that anymore. I "fixed" the heads/cylinder and the sectors per track and reformated the drive.
 
At home it did boot, but at my computer at work it does not want to do boot.
Anyway, as soon as i get home I will try to assert the dos compatibility flag, just in case. but it is no longer the same system.
