Hi Sridhar,
I have not configured my entire harddisk under Linux.In fact I have loaded
in 5GB of my extended DOS partition.
When I ran fdisk during setup it said
Number of cylinders greater than 1024 ,Could be aproblem in some setups.
I am having the entire partition under the single tree / in /dev/hda7 .
So I have already configured it under 8.4 GB.But still I am not able to use
LILO.What could be the problem?
Bye,
hari
