Source code for revision 4 of Werner Almesberger's LILO version 21 is
available by anonymous FTP from:

      ftp://sd.dynhost.com/pub/linux/lilo     (developer)
      ftp://brun.dyndns.org/pub/linux/lilo      (an alias)

And mirrored at the major distribution site:

      ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/boot/lilo   (release)
      ftp://metalab.unc.edu/incoming/Linux           (pre-release)

This revision adds a global option, 'lba32', to enable bootind disks
beyond the 1024 cylinder limit.  The command line switch '-L'
accomplishes the same result.  To be effective, the BIOS must support
the EDD packet call interface (post 1998).

This release also contains a disk utility:  'disk.com', which may be
booted from floppy or run from DOS.  The result is a recommendation
whether the '-L' option will be supported by your BIOS.

This minor update (21.3->21.4) addresses a compatibility issue with
earlier versions of LILO.
