The partition order doesn't matter so long as the f0 partition and the partition containing your kernel (an ext2 partition) *end* within the first 2Gb of the disk. See the PALO README.html. = Also, your hard disk is ida instead of sda, what's that ? PALO lists the devices as 'ida' instead of 'sda' or 'hda' since it is using the firmware 'IODC' interface to talk to the boot device, and it has no idea what type of boot device IODC is providing. -P
