Hello,
I installed linux Mandrake before on my computer, but now it is going the wrong way.
Last week I installed a new hard disk on my computer (IBM HD 13,5 GB). Because of BIOS
problems I was forced to install EZ-bios on my computer. (My PII 266 doesn't seem to
support these large disks).
My primary master is a WD 6.4 GB disk and is containing my windows operating system.
The new disk of 13,5 GB is split up in two partions, one of 4GB and one of 9.5GB. I
tryied to install Mandrake on the 4 GB parition. The installation is no problem. All
files are copied to the disk. (I used the "customized" mode and selected
"development").
After the complete installation the problem start. After the reboot my system is
hanging during the boot. The lines of EZ-bios appear on the screen, but then the
system hangs. This, I guess, gecause of the fact that LILO has corrupted the EZ-bios
in the MBR. (I set LILO to HDA MBR).
Can you give me some hints how to install Mandrake on my computer using the EZ bios,
because I need this to get access to the full disk capacity under windows.
I installed Mandrake before on the same computer without any problems, but then
EZ-bios was not installed.
Thanks
Luc Van Cauwenberghe
