Hi Mrinal,
Since my Hard Disk(17GB) is not recognised by bios, I have to use Ontrack
O/S from Seagate. So the first thing that gets loaded is Ontrack O/S and than
my HDD is recognised as 17GB. Due to this I am unable to use Lilo and now booting
linux using Loadlin. Is there any way I can do the stuff you have told using
Loadlin ?
Thanks for the Help.
Regards
Rajesh
