Upgrade from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2

Hi All!

We are trying to upgrade to ESX 3.0.2 and get this warning...

The disk chs geometry ( 39105.255.63) does not match geometry stored on the disk label (59492.68.64)

Can we ignore it and go on with the upgrade...???

Regards Mogens Westergaard And Henrik Priergaard

I have never run into that problem before, but googleing "disk chs geometry" and a bit of reading lead me to this post:

I've had warnings like that many times from my U60: I've also had \\ similar disk geometry issues on my SGIs, AMD64s, Apples, etc. I take the \\ following approach: if it's only a warning, and doesn't affect the \\ operation of the system at all: I completely ignore it. It's just a \\ consequence of swapping between various operating systems.
