AFAIK this is only an annoyance, LILO is just testing your BIOS for large disk support. If those two functions return different numbers, then it has to do a little extra work. As you said, it still works. It is only a warning. (dpkg is probably just smart enough to suppress the warning message.) - -- vmann reduce(lambda x,y:x+y,map(lambda x:chr(ord(x)^42),tuple('zS^BED\nX_FOY\x0b'))) GnuPG/PGP Fingerprint CE80 018B D825 6DF1 4990 C15F E11A B17E 4A0C D133 Sair Linux and GNU Certified Administrator #563619 Whidbey Linux Users Group - http://www.wlug.net http://vmann.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8Mqt14RqxfkoM0TMRAm0xAKCMoujFVOzqV326BTnVklxWo5fqsQCdETeP UgMjAvRD1Xp5k3i5QFIF9X0= =i2Sr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
