Hi,

I'm a newbie to this group, and very much a novice when it comes to Linux. 
I downloaded the RH 7.1 ISO images to my hard drive via DSL, installed the
OS, and I am now trying to configure LILO to give the option to boot to
Linux.  The hard drive on the primary master is the existing hard drive I
set up to dual boot Win 98 and Win 2000 Pro, and the first partition is
FAT32.  I took an older hard drive and configured it as a secondary slave,
installed Linux on it, and created a boot disk on floppy during the setup. 
When LILO tried to configure itself onto the primary master's boot record, I
got the following message repeated four times:

Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible

Sure enough, upon reboot and after POST I got a L on the screen, and it
froze there.  Nothing a Windows system disk couldn't fix.  When I go back
into Linux, and try to configure lilo.conf, I still get the message above
when I run lilo, and it does the same thing to my boot record.  I've tried
putting in lba32, fix-table, and taking out linear, in all different
combinations.  Any suggestions (besides booting to floppy every time, or
getting rid of Winblowz)?

Thanks,
David
