This is a lilo error that has been popping up a lot lately. It
basically telling you that its using two different bios calls to
determine something and they are returning different values. A lilo
developer came on the list a month or two ago to say that this warning
really wasnt anything to worry about. So basically you can ignore
this. I personally use grub, and I love it and would recomend switching
to it anyway, but YMMV.
