Is that 'lba32' option supposed to allow booting a kernel that is located after the 1024th cylinder? I always thought that was a BIOS limitation, not a LILO one.
I can't use LILO for booting anyways because my BIOS doesn't allow booting off the second IDE bus. LILO hangs at "LI" when booting. As I said before, I have loadlin set up for normal boots off the harddisk. Now I want to make a boot floppy I can use if my system goes bad for some reason. -D On Sat, Jan 06, 2001 at 03:48:42PM -0500, David B. Harris wrote: <snip> | | A boot disk is one way to go.
