translated, it is 0x6e4f02 of capacity, 0x301 device (hda1! yay!), flags e0 (DISK, VIRTUAL, READONLY) (all of which I understand save VIRTUAL -- I guess that means a partition, not the whole disk).

0x6e4f02 is in decimal 7229186. That number makes no sense. It's not the number of blocks, or the number of bytes per unit, or ...

Can somebody clear me up on this simple algebra problem?

It is the capacity in 512-byte sectors.

yes, but it's wrong, which is where I'm stuck. 7229186 512 * p 3701343232

it's a 10G partition, not an 3.7G partition. Any other ideas as to what could be happening here.
