Hi, all:

I don't know much (it'd be more correct to say, "I know very little") about
Linux to fully understand the meaning of the sentence above, but right now
I'm reading--and answering--e-mails using a 40 GB HD which holds all of my
7.3 installation and which LILO starts without any problem.
Fortunately for me, I didn't know I had to use a "stepping stone" to
boot it!
Nothing here is bleeding edge: the BIOS is the most vanilla coming out
in 1995; the 40 GB is a newcomer, replacing the original 4.3 GB; the 7.3 is
just the way it came out of the box.
