Re: [newbie] Lilo install en boot floppy problems

[mike_mcc13]

in order to install lilio you need to be in the first 1024 cylinders of the
disk.  in order to do this use partition magic to find out if you are in the
boot boundary

Search the archives on ultra66.  There is a lot of info that should
help.

  Hi,
   
  I have tried to install Linux-Mandrake 6.1 on a 
  13 GB Quantum Fireball CX1 hard disk with a Promise Ultra66 hard disk 
  controller. I used the Ultra66 RedHat Linux 6.0 Driver partitionising the 
  hard disk. Everything seemed to go well. But I can't create a linux boot 
  floppy or install Lilo in the MBR. What is the problem?
   

[newbie] Lilo install en boot floppy problems

[Hans de Ruiter]

Hi,
 
I have tried to install Linux-Mandrake 6.1 on a 13 
GB Quantum Fireball CX1 hard disk with a Promise Ultra66 hard disk controller. I 
used the Ultra66 RedHat Linux 6.0 Driver partitionising the hard disk. 
Everything seemed to go well. But I can't create a linux boot floppy or install 
Lilo in the MBR. What is the problem?
