Hi All I aqquired a compaq presairo and wanted to use a hd disk that I had already been using. The hd had lilo on the mbr and worked flawlessly. I removed and installed the hd into the compaq which come to find has a setup/diagnostic prog in the mbr?? anyway the hd booted with just LI so I figgured Id place it back in the machine it came from and reinstall lilo. here's the problem.. lilo wont go on the mbr correctly and my /vmlinuz is above the 1024 cylinders so I need it on the mbr I tried using a boot disk and reinstall lilo boot to the drive in single user, running yast and reinstalling onto the mbr (which worked before) boot to dos and fdisk /mbr after taht redoing the first 2 items any suggestions... Id sure appreciate it Id dont really want to reinstall. I just want my system back thanks rob - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
