Dear Friends,
Got a problem for you, first i'll describe it in
brief,
i have a intel chipset 815e motherboard and a samsung
40gb harddisk. i've installed windows 98, windows 2000
and redhat linux 7.1 on it..
while installing redhat linux i made my /boot
partition of 25 mb. after the installation at the end
point i got a message as follows :
"An error occured while installingthe boot loader.
The error reported was: 
warning: /dev/hdb is not on first disk.
warning: device 0*0348 exceeds 1024 cylinder limit.
Fatal: sector 62043632 too large for linear mode ( try
"lba32" instead )"

I thought the problem might be of 1024 cylinder limit,
so i made a primary partition above my c: drive of 25
mb but it didn't work.. plz note my harddisk is
primary slave.. i also want to install suse on in but
it too gives errors.. at present i'm forced to use
loadlin to boot to linux..

i hope you people will help me get rid of this
problem.
ritesh
