You can avoid the 8GB trap if you use GRUB as you have done. But i think it's
because Grub can be placed elsewhere than on the MBR. It's a chronic problem
with LILO cos there's no other place for it. The normal work-around is to use
an 8GB primary partion C with another larger one D made later w
I am sure you're right. But if you try to boot different partitions from the
MBR with Lilo it often fails when the first partion is >8GB. I don't know
Grub so well but it is possible to mount this elsewhere than on the MBR
which avoids the problem and Grub2 is even more advantageous.

Sounds like you forget the mount points, it's easy to do when you use
Debian's CFDISK or Partioner. Mea culpa!

You think, Cameleon, that I am picky because I think an OS with an automatic
configuration should be able to correctly configure a Nvidia TNT2 video card
with a CMedia sound board. Slackware and Zenwalk do a fine job of it.
Let me say that in one regard you are mistaken You must register first
