I think someone else has already mentioned the solution. It refers to the
BIOS disk types being set to large or normal, when it should be LBA. I saw
the same problem, and the solution worked for me.
And for the other chap who said that they are LO's not 10's, they looked
suspicously like 10's to me, AND I hadn't installed LILO!!

First question is: did you elect to start the x-server automatically, and if
so, are you sure that you installed the correct video driver for X? A little
information about your box, and the way you configured Linux would help to
limit the possibilities as well. Maybe someone else has seen this behavior,
but I haven't. Sorry I can't be of any more help,
Ernie
