tell me that... i struggled the whole weekend trying to figure out that
thing.. and had almost crashed my hard disks.. (well actually i did managed
to crash one partition). Is'nt there a workaround to that problem.. i mean
the restriction that /boot has to be within the first 1024 cylinder. it seems
with newer version of lilo (>21), you have and option of (-l) which solves
the problem (it did'nt help me though).
Well in other words why can't we have /boot in partition beyond 1024 cylinder
?

Mayank
