Is this a kernel or a LILO limitation? Might we want to consider a
work-around for this issue? i.e. could a rewrite of LILO or some 'default'
use of loadlin do the trick to fix this problem forever? Harddrivers aren't
getting any smaller you know....

Subject: RH and drive cylinders
Hi,
I know there has been endless conversation on this topic
before, but would someone please let me know if a drive over 1024
cylinders can be used with Red Hat Linux and if so how? I've got a
Western Digital 6.4G drive with 13328 cylinders. Is this
compatible? Thanks in advance.
