New drive--->lilo warning



Hi,

I have just installed a third IDE hard drive (my board supports up to 4). 
I have configured the BIOS.  Now I want to use lilo to make it possible to
boot from it (it currently has DOS on it), but when I try, it comes up
with: 

# lilo
Added linux *
Added dos
ide: probable bad entry for /dev/hdc
ide: to fix it, run:  /usr/src/linux/scripts/MAKEDEV.ide
Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible
ide: probable bad entry for /dev/hdc
ide: to fix it, run:  /usr/src/linux/scripts/MAKEDEV.ide
Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible
Added dad

I don't know whether to believe its explanation.  I suspect something else
might be wrong.  Any ideas?

Mark.

P.S. My lilo.conf is the following:

boot=/dev/hda
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image=/vmlinuz
  root=/dev/hda1
  label=linux
  read-only
# Linux bootable partition config ends
# DOS bootable partition config begins
other = /dev/hdb1
  label = dos
  loader = /boot/any_d.b
  table = /dev/hdb
# DOS bootable partition config ends
# DOS bootable partition config begins
other = /dev/hdc1
  label = dad
  loader = /boot/any_d.b
  table = /dev/hdc
# DOS bootable partition config ends
