Subject: [ILUG-BOM] Significance of 1024 cylinders during Linux installation


> Hai Everyone,
>       While installing linux, I was prompted to have
> the primary partition within the first 1024 cylinders.
> What is the significance of this message?
>       This happened when I was installing in dual OS
> mode with Win 2000 as the other OS. This never
> happened with the previous versions of windows.
>     Is it to do anything with the partition size. If
> yes, then why not with other versions of windows as I
> could install linux having win98 with the same size
> partitions.
>        Advance thanks for your answer.
