Subject: LILO update to version 21 (new rev 3) to boot above 1024 cylinders
Date: Sat, 4 Mar 2000 13:06:21 GMT
Source code for revision 3 of Werner Almesberger's LILO version 21 is
available from:
ftp://sd.dynhost.com/pub/linux/lilo
This revision adds a global option, 'lba32', to enable bootind disks
beyond the 1024 cylinder limit. The command line switch '-L'
accomplishes the same result. To be effective, the BIOS must support
the EDD packet call interface (post 1998).
The package, available as 'lilo-21-3.tar.gz' includes source code, man
pages, and updates to all pertinent documentation. This code has been
in beta release since 11/99 under the name "LILO version 22". Werner
asked me to change the designation to indicate that it is derived from
his version 21, as his version 22 will be a major update.
