                Using the output from discfree a '4 gigabyte' disc has
16,776,624 sectors. Using 256 bytes to a sector this gives 4,294,815,744
bytes. So I guess that means 4,194,156 sectors to 1 gigabyte - unless
someone has a more accurate figure.

                        I have a simple question, I'm almost embarrassed to
ask it.  How many sectors of disk space equals one gigabyte ?
