kernel overlaps lilo second stage

[sly514]

Hi,

I had gentoo running perfect last week and I ran into a bug and decided
to reinstall.

Only now I'm getting something totally different as a boot problem.

My machine is a pentium 4, 2 G RAM with 5 SCSI disks.

I just recompiled the kernel with minimal options like I read in another thread.

what is gentoo EDBA?
Why is it too big?

I did enable high memory 4 G even thaugh I only have 2G.
could this be the problem?

My lilo.conf seems to be ok when I run /sbin/lilo

i'm going to recompile now.

thx

Ok, I got over the lilo second stage thing by recompiling my kernel and
doing /sbin/lilo -v -v.

But then I got :

Loading Gentoo...Ok, get ready to rumble!!!!

Then nothing happened.

Since then, I looked at fstab, seems ok.
As I remember make.conf was ok.
Reiserfs was enabled in the kernel.

I replaced lilo by grub.

Loading Gentoo...Ok, get ready to rumble!!!!

again hanging there.

I can't wait to rumble.
