<title>Installation of Lilo</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>We have chosen Lilo because we feel confortable with it, but you
|
|
may wish to take a look elsewhere. Someone has written a hint on
|
|
GRUB at <ulink
|
|
url="http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-hints/grub-howto.txt">http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-hints/grub-howto.txt</ulink>,
|
|
an alternative boot loader.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Install Lilo by running the following commands:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><screen><userinput>make &&</userinput>
|
|
<userinput>make install</userinput></screen></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It appears that compilation of this package fails on certain machines
|
|
when the -g compiler flag is being used. If you can't compile Lilo at
|
|
all, you should try to remove the -g value from the CFLAGS variable in the
|
|
<filename>Makefile</filename> file.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>At the end of the installation the make install process will print a
|
|
message stating that /sbin/lilo has to be executed to complete the
|
|
update. Don't do this as it has no use. The /etc/lilo.conf isn't present
|
|
yet. We will complete the installation of lilo in chapter 8.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Maybe you'll be interested to know that someone wrote a hint on
|
|
how to get a logo instead the the standard LILO prompt or menu. Take
|
|
a look at it at <ulink
