I have been experimenting with the mbr package. (mbr is a dependency for
the lilo package; so if you have lilo installed you have mbr package installed
too.) I usually install lilo to the master boot record (boot=/dev/hda
specified in /etc/lilo.conf). But in certain situations it is
1024 cylinders.
2) Installing the mbr package and having lilo in a partition boot
sector.
Is it correct that this may work for partitions beyond 1024 cyls?
3) Installing lilo in the mbr directly.
As I understand lilo>=21.4 finds kernels beyond 1024 cyls in this
config.
I guess the fourth alt
Thanx to everyone who responded to my request about removing mbr. Since
Linux is the only OS installed on the machine in question, I have
reconfigured LILO to install in the MBR. Seems to have had the intended
effect.
Thanx!

I was wondering how hard it is to remove/replace the mbr package. We have
a single system running hamm, for which we want to disable the capability
of booting from a diskette. Currently we've disabled floppy-boot in the
BIOS, and configured LILO to require a password (only if kernel-option
