Howdy,
I am attempting to boot to my LINUX partition located above 1024
cylinders. I have RedHat 7.1 (2.4.2) and I keep getting an error stating
that LINUX can't boot past 1024. I just upgraded from debian 2.2 (2.2.17)
and it allowed me to do just that (I needed the X support and 2.4 kernel
for my new video card). Is there a boot switch to allow booting from above
1024? I can't seem to find it in my LINUX manuals but it does exist (at
least in debian 2.2).
Thank you,
David R. Novotny
