I've broken lilo; how to fix?
I couple of weeks ago I was trying to teach lilo about my >8 gig disk
via some parameter added to the lilo.conf file. I no longer remember
what I did, and have long since removed it. But now lilo will not
run. It boots the machine fine, and the machine works great; but I
can't change my kernel or make any other change that requires running
lilo.
Running lilo gives me this error message:
Warning: device 0x0302 exceeds 1024 cylinder limit
geo_comp_addr: Cylinder number is too big (4464 > 1023)
Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I'm not concerned about accessing the
>8 part of the disk, but only with being able to run lilo again.
Thanks!
