Hi. I'm trying to install lilo on a friend's computer (after doing it 100s of times at work), and get te following error:
Warning: device 0x0302 exceeds 1024 cylinder limit geo_comp_addr: Cylinder number is too big (1093 > 1023) That computer bios has the ability to "see" over the 1024th cylinder, since dos' fdisk has the linux partitions listed. I tried downloading a newer version of lilo and compiling it myself, but it happend again. Since I know that the bios can actually work that way, is ther a way (beyond manually editing the sources not to stop by this problem) to force lilo to install itself into the mbr? TIA, Liran. --- http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~liranz/
