= Maybe you have changed from LBA to non-LBA or back?

-------------
1st question:
Would DOS still run when, when he switched LBA mode? No, because
this changes the C/H/S-mappings. (But maybe he did fdisk /mbr from
floppy-booted-DOS). ... If LILO hangs after LI, it failed to
load the second part of the bootup-code.

2nd question:
What is the status of Linux' Unicode implementation. Will Linux
be prepared for the first contact?
