The version of lilo in potato

ii  lilo           21.4.3-2       LInux LOader - The Classic OS loader can loa

Reaches everywhere on my 30G disk partitioned like so:

   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hdc1             1     14899   7509064+  83  Linux
/dev/hdc2         14900     29799   7509600   a6  OpenBSD
/dev/hdc3         29800     44699   7509600   83  Linux
/dev/hdc4         44700     59598   7509096   83  Linux

That is, all 4 partitions are bootable via lilo.

Luck,
