Hi All:

I just rebuilt my system at home after a mobo crash and went to a larger
15.3gig hard drive from my old 8.4gig.  Now when I try to install RH6.2
I get the message that my boot sector, or boot partition, is too large,
and when I try to do SuSE6.3 and tell it to put LILO on a floppy, it
will not write to the disk.  I know this is a LILO issue, and that it
has been covered before in this group, but could someone point me in the
right direction for fixing this?  Thanks, Dennis in Waco
