lilo − install boot loader
Main function:
/sbin/lilo − install boot loader
Auxiliary uses:
/sbin/lilo
-q − query map
/sbin/lilo -R − set default command line for next
reboot
/sbin/lilo -I − inquire path name of current
kernel
/sbin/lilo {-u|-U} − uninstall lilo
lilo installs a boot loader that will be activated next time you boot. It has lots of options.
|
−v |
Increase verbosity. Giving one or more -v options will make lilo more verbose. | ||
|
−q |
List the currently mapped files. lilo maintains a file, by default /boot/map, containing the name and location of the kernel(s) to boot. This option will list the names therein. |
−m map-file
Use specified map file instead of the default.
−C config-file
lilo reads its instructions about what files to map from its config file, by default /etc/lilo.conf. This option can be used to specify a non-default config file.
−d delay
If you have specified several kernels, and press Shift at boot-time, the boot loader will present you with a choice of which system to boot. After a timeout period the first kernel in the list is booted. This option specifies the timeout delay in deciseconds.
−D label
Use the kernel with the given label, instead of the first one in the list, as the default kernel to boot.
−r root-directory
Before doing anything else, do a chroot to the indicated directory. Used for repairing a setup from a boot floppy.
|
−t |
Test only. Do not really write a new boot sector or map file. Use together with -v to find out what lilo is about to do. | ||
|
−c |
Enable map compaction. This will merge read requests from adjacent sectors. Speeds up the booting (especially from floppy). |
−f disk-tab
Specify disk geometry parameter file. (The default is /etc/disktab.)
−i boot-sector
Specify a file to be used as the new boot sector. (The default is /boot/boot.b.)
|
−l |
Generate linear sector addresses instead of sector/head/cylinder addresses. | ||
|
−L |
Generate 32-bit Logical Block Addresses instead of C:H:S addresses, allowing access to all partitions on disks greater than 8.4Gb. |
−P {fix|ignore}
Fix (or ignore) ’corrupt’ partition tables, i.e., partition tables with linear and sector/head/cylinder addresses that do not correspond.
−s save-file
When lilo overwrites the boot sector, it preserves the old contents in a file, by default /boot/boot.NNNN where NNNN depends on the device. This option specifies an alternate save file for the boot sector. (Or, together with the -u option, specifies from where to restore the boot sector.)
−S save-file
Normally, lilo will not overwrite an existing save file. This options says that overwriting is allowed.
−u device-name
Uninstall lilo, by copying the saved boot sector back. A time-stamp is checked.
−U device-name
Idem, but do not check the time-stamp.
−R command line
This option sets the default command for the boot loader the next time it executes. The boot loader will then erase this line: this is a once-only command. It is typically used in reboot scripts, just before calling ’shutdown -r’.
−I label
The label of the running kernel can be found in the environment variable BOOT_IMAGE after startup. This command will print the corresponding path name on stdout.
|
−V |
Print version number. |
The above command line options correspond to the key words in the config file indicated below.
lilo.conf(5).
The lilo distribution comes with very extensive
documentation.
