Well, I'm not the low level guru :-) This is the first time I playing with
data/partitions recovery :-\

The fdisk gives me:
Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(1023, 254, 63) logical=(19456, 254, 63)
/mnt/tmp/recovery.dd.2.iso5           16612       19457    22860463+   c  W95
FAT32 (LBA)

Which number should I use?
