Hello,

I've had the same problem with lilo-21-10. I solved it by simply patching
lilo.h:

lilo.h: CL_LENGTH = 4e   -->  CL_LENGTH = 7e

This worked fine for me together with 2.2.13-ac3, but I'am not sure about
problems this can raise
in other environments.

I have reached the append= limit because a new kernel parameter "noautoraid"
which I have
implemented in 2.2.13-ac3. And for debug purposes of the above append= problem,
I have
extended the kernel with a printaout of whole cmd line passed to the kernel
right after the
kernel is started.

If someone is interested in the patches, let me know.

Armin

Thema: lilo append limits

Hello again,

I answered one of my questions alone:

append= is limited to 48 characters

This means that you can append 2 ide drives but not 3...

Does the ide patch enable the 4 ide interfaces on a BP6?

Just thought I'd ask before recompiling my kernel with it.

Cheers

Tony Grant
