Here we go:
======= ECP selected in BIOS ==============
[root@tina tina]# dd if=/dev/sda4 of=/tmp/fs-ECP bs=512 count=8
8+0 records in
8+0 records out
[root@tina tina]# file /tmp/fs-ECP
/tmp/fs-ECP: ASCII text
======= EPP selected in BIOS ==============
[root@tina tina]# dd if=/dev/sda4 of=/tmp/fs-EPP bs=512 count=8
8+0 records in
8+0 records out
[root@tina tina]# file /tmp/fs-EPP
/tmp/fs-EPP: x86 boot sector
If you need more data, please let me know.
I am willing to do more experiments
Igor
P.S:
Both files are GZIP-ed and attached to this mail
