I have a problem about that. I am trying to put 'vmlinuz' in '/', but I can't because yast says my partition has more than 1024 cilynders. But it is only 800Mb large. Is it possible? Did I do something wrong? It is a 486DX 33. Bye

The only times I got that was when I was trying to boot off of a partition that has more than 1024 cylinders.... It happened on both Red-hat and SuSE... to me..

Does S.u.S.E. use anoother version of LILO than RedHat? The reason I ask is that I installed RedHat on a IBM Thinkpad 760XL, no problem. But then I would try S.u.S.E. 5.1, and then LILO only get as far as 'L' and then hangs. I don't know what that implies (except it's a hardware problem). But when LILO from RHL 5.0 works, why not LILO from S.u.S.E. 5.1?
