=     You put the swap partition before the f0 partition and here it is the f0
= partition in first position.

The partition order doesn't matter so long as the f0 partition and
the partition containing your kernel (an ext2 partition) *end* within
the first 2Gb of the disk.  See the PALO README.html.

=     Also, your hard disk is ida instead of sda, what's that ?

PALO lists the devices as 'ida' instead of 'sda' or 'hda' since it
is using the firmware 'IODC' interface to talk to the boot device,
and it has no idea what type of boot device IODC is providing.
