What's missing is the lba32 line in /etc/lilo.conf. Here are the complete steps: . Have your hard disk set to LBA mode before installation . Have a motherboard that supports LBA32 (most since 1999 do) . Start installing... . If disk-druid objects to your boot partition after cyl 1023, just go "back" and use "fdisk" instead - fdisk will allow it. . Say YES when it offers to make you an emergency boot floppy. . Boot from hard disk. If it succeeds, stop, you're done. . Boot from the emergency boot floppy. . Modify /etc/lilo.conf - delete the line that says "linear" if present. Add a line that contains one word, lba32, at the top of the file. . Run /sbin/lilo <-- IMPORTANT > > On Sun, 16 Sep 2001, Dynamite wrote: > > > Hi all, > > > > How to install Red Hat 7.1 over 1024 cyllinder ?
