never know... but You can change the source to 256 images (0-255) which is
the standard in HDBDOS.

$d93a. Which when just looking at a raw rom image from a PC hex editor, it
would be $1938, $1939, & $193a. It's easy to find as it's one of the only
rom locations that contain three "0" bytes in a row. You also must
remember, this value is in "sectors" not bytes (256 bytes per sector). I
can't remember if this value changes to half when using LBA mode since LBA
uses 512 byte sectors.
I dont think CHS mode does anything different. Still 512 byte sectors.
Like Bill says, the offset is in sectors, and you'll have to set the hdb
offset high enough to clear the nitros sectors. cloud 9's hdbdos guide (on
website) is good stuff btw.
