 Hello !
I remember reading some place about the Bios limitation that prevented OS to 
load if they were not in the first 1024 cylinder. Anybody who can help me 
shed some more light on this... I'm trying to help a friend installing a 
multi-boot on a big Harddisk, and this might be the reason we have problems.
Any URL FAQ or pointer appreciated.
