I found that the cheap and easy way was to install LILO to a floppy instead of to the hard drive. The only downside is you have to boot Linux from that floppy.


Mabey others will another option for you.

Some of the newer versions are not limited to the first 1024 (like Mandrake 8.1 and maybe Redhat 7.2)....
