Skus si vytvorit malu (t.j. mensiu ako 8 GB :-) /boot particiu na zaciatku
disku a malo by to ist.

Staci, ked BIOS dokaze spustit LILO, moze si pri tom kludne mysliet, ze mas
hoci aj 20 MB disk :-). LILO natiahne jadro a jadro by uz s velkym diskom
malo vediet pracovat ("by malo", pretoze RH 5.1 je cca 5 rokov stary system
a uz si ani najstarsi pamatnici nepamataju, ze co vsetko vedelo v tom
case jadro :-)).

BTW, RH 5.1 je nepodporovany system a uz sa prenho nerobia updaty, takze
jeho pouzivanie na serioznu pracu moze byt takmer hazardom.

sa robi napr. pomocou programu fdisk alebo parted.
