Howdy, Y'all:
Where can I find help with 'lilo'.
When I try to boot from hard disk, I get:
LI
This happens with several hard disks, usually large ones of
8 gigabytes or larger. The drives are partitioned with
partition 1 <= 1024 cylinders,
partition 2 is some swap, and
partition 3 is 'the rest'.
Partition 1 is '/' and contains the entire distribution
install (Slackware v8.0).
I've read some help files and it mentions drive geometry
problems and the 1024 cylinder limit. I usually keep
trying different hard drives until I get one that will
boot and then I make it /dev/hda.
The system boots fine from CD-ROM (Slackware8.0 Install)
or pre-install boot disk or post-install created lilo floppy.

Regards, Chuck
