;---------------------------------------------------------------------
;
;	This file describes blocks of data that exist on a hard disk
;	to describe that disk.	They are not generically accessable to
;	the user as they do not appear on any DOS drive.  The blocks
;	are tagged with a unique identifier, checksummed, and linked
;	together.  The root of these blocks is the RigidDiskBlock.
;
;	The RigidDiskBlock must exist on the disk within the first
;	RDB_LOCATION_LIMIT blocks.  This inhibits the use of the zero
;	cylinder in an AmigaDOS partition: although it is strictly
;	possible to store the RigidDiskBlock data in the reserved
;	area of a partition, this practice is discouraged since the
;	reserved blocks of a partition are overwritten by "Format",
;	"Install", "DiskCopy", etc.  The recommended disk layout,
;	then, is to use the first cylinder(s) to store all the drive
;	data specified by these blocks: i.e. partition descriptions,
;	file system load images, drive bad block maps, spare blocks,
;	etc.
;
;	Though only 512 byte blocks are currently supported by the
;	file system, this proposal tries to be forward-looking by
;	making the block size explicit, and by using only the first
;	256 bytes for all blocks but the LoadSeg data.
