Stephen: I've seen that message, on 1 or more of our dual boot boxes.
As it says, you can ignore it, but when you do the GRUB configuration
during the installation, you should select "Advanced" and then enable
LBA. Then, you can boot Linux from above cylinder 1024.
Our 3 dual boot systems are all booting properly, into MS Windows
98SE/ME or Psyche, from the GRUB graphic screen.
