- According to the LILO Version 0.8 documentation, the LILO boot sector
- can't be stored on the second hard disk. This is unfortunate, since I
- have pretty good reasons for placing my primary Linux file system
- partition on the second disk. Is there any hope that this limitation
- might be removed? (If not, it looks like I will have to give up on LILO
- and continue booting Linux from floppy disk.)
