It's just a warning for people using old versions of Lilo or installing on old systems. If you're installing on a system less than a pentium 200, your bios might not boot disk partistions over a certain limit (1024). WIth windows, this wasn't a problem, as windows was the only option. When Linux came around, it was a hit and miss thing. For 90% of people, it wasn't a problem, as LBA was enabled, but if your bios didn't have this option, you'd have to work around it. Without any guarantee, if your system is newer than 1996, you're safe, and can ignore this warning. If it's older, you can check the BIOS and see if you have a LBA option. If so, enable it, and you're good to go.
