Question

How do you create an alignment offset to be 64k and not 64 mb   create partition primary size=40960 offset=64 works but creates a 64 mb partiton on the drive i want to use and therefor have to come up with a partiton less than 40 gigs in order to fit the 64mb chunk. create partition primary size=40960 offset=64k does not work create partition primary size=40960 offset=64kb does not work   Thanks
