This has got to be an easy question, but I cannot find the answer.

During the installation script linux says to make a partition.  It
asks for the first cyl (says "(1-820)") and I tell it 1.  It then asks
for the last cly (says "enter last cyl or +size +sizeM +sizeK
(1-820)") and I tell it 820.  It says "Warning: partition 1 has an odd
number of sectors".  It says this no matter what I put for the last
cyl.  What can this be?

Perplexed,
