Christian Helmuth 65d9607ece vbox6: force C/H/S disk geometry from calculation
Some Ubuntu installations (e.g., 20.04) create installation disks with
strange C/H/S MBR partitions like 3988/255/2. Normally, VirtualBox reads
the MBR to guess disk geometry information for the virtual BIOS.
Unfortuantely, the strange values from Ubuntu lead to a heavy
virtual-disk activity on boot. Therefore, this commit forces the use of
calculated values based on the assumption that large disks use LBA
addressing anyway.

Fixes #4978

This directory contains ports of 3rd-party applications to Genode.

The 'ports' repository follows the patterns of the 'libports' repository.
For instructions about downloading and building 3rd-party applications,
please refer to _libports/README_.


Dependencies from other repositories
------------------------------------

Applications provided by the 'ports' repository typically expect a rich
runtime environment, including shared libraries provided by the 'libports'
repository. Hence, 'ports' depends on 'libports'.
