I went thru the info provided on this page. According to that I should
be doing a mapping of
C/H/S C/H/S
8682/64/32 = 1106/255/53
The above page also says that I should provide the new geometry to the
kernel thru the lilo boot prompt. But what do I do if I am doing fresh
install and the scsi disk is the only available disk on the system? For
fresh install, I tried to give linux sda=1106,255,63 during the 'boot:'
prompt, but that did not help.
The above doc also says that BIOS gives the geometry figures before the
kernel is booted. Is it possible to change the geometry in the BIOS
itself?
Thanks in advance,
Raju
