Me also.
It is possible that you have a motherboard that don't like to have
kernels before the 1024 cylinder?
Are you using lba32 in your lilo.conf??
Reading the lilo user guide, that is really strange.
Could you send me:
your lilo.conf
the output of:
ls -l /boot
??
It appears that:
1- you are not using bzImage (strange if you are using Mandrake
kernel).
2- you are using a prehistoric lilo (not probablye yf you has
installed 8.0)
Later, Juan.
