Google search found my problem. Suse had this page
http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/1024_Zylinder.html
My error was LILO was installed above 1024 cylinder boundary. L shows first
stage loaded. The 40 is exact error.
Again from a SUSE page "L error The first stage boot loader has been loaded
and started, but it can't load the second stage boot loader. The two-digit
error codes indicate the type of problem. This condition usually indicates a
media failure or a geometry mismatch."

Subject: [newbie] Why bootup shows "L 02 02 02...."?
Hi Linux users,
I finally took the plunge into v8.0 yesterday
evening (upgraded from v7.2).
However, after the smooth installation, I almost
got a heart attack when LILO showed "L 02 02 02 02
02 02 02....." to infinity.
Has anyone else got this problem? I assume not,
since I didn't find any "L 02" problem in the
archive.
Can someone tell me how to solve this problem? Any
ideas will be appreciated.
Thank you.
