Tried to install DSL 0.8.4 to 128 MB CF using frugal_instal.sh. Get LILO error #4 when I try to boot.  Error #4 is defined as:

Sector not found. This typically indicates a geometry mismatch. If you're booting a raw-written disk image, verify whether it was created for disks with the same geometry as the one you're using. If you're booting from a SCSI disk, you should check whether LILO has obtained correct geometry data from the kernel or whether the contents of your /etc/lilo/disktab file correspond to the real disk geometry. Removing compact may help too.

My CF geometry is C:124, H:32, S:63. What geometry was image created with?

OR... maybe I'm way off base and this is another problem.
Thanks in advance,
rbarnich
