[aclug-L] LI problem...

[Maverick Ieong <mluvw47@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, all
  I try to to install Redhat 6.2 on a 20G IDE drive: 

  Here is the partitions:
  hda1    4G (Primiary) Win32-FAT
         16G (Extended) 
  inside 16G it gots
          6G (logical) Win32-FAT
          7G (logical) Win32-FAT
         16M (logical) linux native  /boot
        256M (logical) linux swap
        Rest (logical) linux native  /

  The redhat linux complete install, we put the lilo
on 
the 4G MBR, and try to bootup and it stops on "LI".
Luckly I created a boot disk at the end of
installation. So I can boot up using floppy and got to
linux. And just re-run the /sbin/lilo, and it
generates

>...execeed 1024 cyclinder

so I decided to take away the lilo, and bootup the
machine, and go to win98, and 
run fdisk /mbr

  Now, I am able to boot to linux using the boot
floppy, is that anyway to work around boot up linux?
any OS-manager will work or recommended? 

  TIA.
                            Mav
