Hi Artur,

I have been sitting staring at the above for a while, and looking at
store_imsm_mpb() it is not clear to me what is meant to happen here.

For 4k sector drives, aren't you pushing back sb_start way further than
you are for 512 byte sector drives? Ie. you are subtracting 16 sectors
for the 4k drive but only two sectors for the 512 byte sector drive?

Maybe it's because it's Monday or I lost the last of my marbles, but
could you possibly enlighten me here please?

Thanks,
Jes
