I just installed the LILO 0.19 rpm on my machine. When I run it I get
the following messages in my messages file:

Jun 28 07:37:25 kb5yvf kernel: ide: probable bad entry for /dev/hdc

I ran MAKEDEV.ide (from linux/scripts) and got the same thing. I only
have 2 ide devices on my machine so this isn't a problem for me right
now, but I guess it could be.
