Question 1024th Cylandar???
Hey,

I recently tried to install Red Hat Linux 7.1 on my computer. The computer has a 20g Hard drive, most of which is taken up by windows 98.

When I tried to install Linux, I formatted what was my I:\ Drive (about the 14th Gig of my system). When I tried to create the /boot partition though, I got the message "Cannot create boot partition past the 1024th Cylendar" (or something like that). Could you please tell me How many megabytes up this 1024th Cylendar is, so that I'll know where abouts to set the /boot partition.

PS: Be gentle, I'm pretty new to Linux (though not to computers).

Paul
