APPENDIX
A.
Cylinder-Sector/Physical Sector Conversion Table
The following tables give the
physical
sector
numbers
for
the
first sector of every cylinder.
The first table
is
for single-sided diskettes.
All
sectors
are
reco~ded
on
surface ze,..o,
0,..
the top surfacel
of
a
Single-sided diskette.
The
second
table
is
ror
double-sided diskettes.
The
physical sector numbers are given
ror
the first sector
of
a
cylinde~
on
each
su~face.
Su~face
ze~o
is the top surface
and surface one is the bottom surface.
The following notation is used in
the
table headings:
