Is this a text file you had saved somewhere?
but I cannot set the 1st partition starting at 63.
it only allow me 2048
How can I force it to 63?
The default for a long time has been to start at 2048 instead of 63. I assume you are using fdisk, which is quite difficult to force in this way. I recommend using parted instead. When specifying start position and size, append an "s" to the number to use sector counts. For example to create the first partition there (assuming an empty table), you would enter: mkpart p ntfs 63s 24981074s
