Hello

I tried to install lilo on a new red hat 7 instalation.
I tried to istall it on a 15 meg hda2 /boot, located after a 16 gig windows
partition (which I can't move/remove etc.).
I got an error (which coresponded to a comment during the installation
formating stage) which said that lilo couldn't install,
niether on hda2 nor on hda which reads as follows:

Warning:  device 0x0302 exceeds 1024 cylinders limit. Fatal: geo_comp_addr!
cylinder number is too big (2040 > 1023).

I can reinstall/format the linux partition. I couldn't get linux to load off
of  hda2 which contains the boot partition without lilo either (the computer
just froze on startup).

The installation did boot ok from the boot disk.

Is there any way to solve this in order to use lilo instead of using loadlin
instead?

Thank you.
