Product: lilo
Component: lilo
Summary: "Kernel too big" error with all kernels in LILO after
installing 9.1 beta 2
Version: 22.3.4-1mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I just completed a successful install of Mandrake 9.1 beta 2. I had
repartitioned the drive & formatted the partitions. However, the choices for
LILO on reboot after the installer completed showed me the same choices I had
before installation. None of the Linux kernels will load, I get the same error
with any of them. "Loading LinuxDBDA too big"
I was able to boot off a floppy disk, and get into Linux that way. However, the
mouse wasn't working (submitted another bug report for that), and so I couldn't
go into the KDE Lilo editor. I edited the /etc/lilo.conf file from virtual
terminal, and everything looked OK. The kernels were pointing to a symlink file
in /boot that pointed to an .img file. I reran lilo, but I got the same error
after reboot.
