Re: moving linux to new disk

["Aciel" <aciel speakeasy net>]

I get messages like this when I try to install RedHat on a computer with a
large hard drive, where large hard drive support is not available (this
includes boot overlay stuff). You might try upgrading the bios, if possible.
If not, get a <540MB hard drive, as that will surely be supported.
