In addition to doing so, you may wish to clear out the MBR, when LBA
is set in BIOS, it writes to the MBR of the disk, doing a:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hd_with_low_cyls_here bs=512 count=1
will resolve that issue, reboot after you do that to be sure that the
MBR was cleared...
If you have any data you wish to keep, be sure to back it up before
you do this, as you will lose all the boot info and partition info
on that drive.
