Have you checked, if the kernel detects the geometry of your hd
correctly? If not supply the correct geometry as a lilo append
"hdc=x,y,z" line (have a look at
/usr/src/kernel-source*/Documentation/*).
16:03 means hexdeciamal 0x16: 0x03 == 22,3 == /dev/hdc3.
Which kernel and harddrive are you using?
I hope I pointed in the right direction,
Jens
