HELLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPP :)

Tonight we installed a new 8 gb hard drive.  We copied across all the files
from the old 500 mb hard drive without too much of a hastle.  Now the problem
is that at the very last stage, after creating the new boot disk, we
go to run /sbin/lilo and the damn thing tells us that we are out of our
Cylinder range.

This is what we have

/dev/hdc
which is the new device
/dev/hdc1 as the new partition


Sorrry  /dev/hdc1 is the 10MB partition we created for a /boot sector
and /dev/hdc2 is the rest of the 8 gb hard drive.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how we can partition the new hard drive
so that lilo won't complain to us.  What should our lilo.conf look like
for example.

We have tried several ways and alway get map installer error messages.

Thanks again guys.  Really appreciate the help as usual.
