when specifying the mount-points.
/boot
:
Copy the kernel(s), that you want to boot (usually vmlinuz
in a new system)
to /boot
at the end of the installation.
/etc/lilo.conf
.
Of course you have to adapt it to the names of your partitions and kernels.
Please read the comments !
If you want to use more than one kernel or further systems, you can of course add more sections for further boot partitions at the end of the file. Please also note that by default the system at the top will be booted if nothing else is specified at the LILO boot-prompt. If necessary rearrange the different sections.
