Hey guys,

I've had a bunch of people ask me if anyone solved this problem, since they
are encountering it too, so I figured I would resend the question w/o all my
random other info:

I am trying to dual boot a win98 and Mandrake 7.2 system.  Lilo can't
install (b/c I assume it is
past the cylinder barrier.)
This is what happens when I try to boot w/o a boot disk:

"Reading DMI Pool Information...."  <--------this is normal
"Stage 1"                           <--------a lot like the mandrake
startup, eh
*freeze*                            <--------this is not normal;)

So, I fdisk /mbr'ed, and viola! ...same thing happens.  doh!
Since the "Stage 1" resembles an awful lot the beginning of
a linux boot, I'm suspecting that LILO is stuck on there somehow...

-Dave
