I am trying to install Linux 6.1 from CD on a 13.6 G HDD. The HDD is
completely empty and I intend to just run Linux on it.
So, I am trying to partition it into a Linux-native partition of 12 G with
remaining as Linux-swap partition.
But, it doesnt let me partition it that way. It only allows upto a max of
7G, anything above that, it gives me 'Boot partition too big' error and
doesnt allocate the partition.

Is this coz of the 8G constraint on the BIOS ? WHy does this happen ? Any
way I can get around this ?

Also, it shows my HDD as only 12G, and not the full 13.6 ???

thanks in advance,
KG
