-Boot ur system using Linux boot floppy.
-Do vi /etc/lilo.conf.
-At one line in the lilo.conf file u see linear ,now delete it and type
lba32
-do :wq ie save and come out.
-open a shell and type lilo and press enter.
-reboot ur system now lets try if it works else take a copy of the
lilo.conf file and mail it to me I will see and send u a modified one.
