        Place again the hd on the Pentium mobo, and write down the geometry
after hdd recognition. Then make sure you have the same geometry on the 486.
geometry=c/h/s

Starting point:        (-1)^(-1) = -1
Applying logarithms: (-1)*ln(-1) = ln(-1)
Since ln(-1) <> 0, dividing:  -1 = 1
     (ln(-1) is complex, but exists)
