Mne se na stroji s BIOSem, ktery umel jen do cylindru C = 1023 povedlo
nainstalovat DOS a Linux tak, ze DOS partition a Linux boot partition
byly cele na valcich <=1023 a Linux swap + /home v dalsich partitionech
C > 1023. To je mozne, protoze Linux interne umi pracovat s C > 1023
a BIOS, ktery je pricinou potizi, potrebuje jen LILO pri bootu.
 
Podobne zkusenosti mam i se SCO UNIXem, kde take pod C 1023 musi lezet
jen SCO boot division (division je ve SCO jakysi "partition v partition",
takovych divisions muze byt v kazdem partition az 8 a obchazi se tim limit
max 4 partitionu na disku).
