[comp.periphs] Want to use non-standard HD

I want to use a non-standard HD on Ericsson PC or Ericsson AT/WS286.

With non-standard I mean a harddisk that is not supported directly by the
BIOS.
I want to use the following hard-disks :

AMPEX 27   ( 320 cylinders , 8 heads )
HITACHI DK 511-8 ( 823 cylinders ,10 heads )

I have tried with DiskManager but all versions I used where made for a specific
brand ( ex. Seagate ,Miniscribe etc ) and it's not possible to change parameters
for cylinders or heads.

Do you know if there is a generic version of DiskManager with the possibility 
to change cylinders and heads parameters ?

Do you know some other programs ?
