# #################### LILO global section ######################

# With all newer systems (until year 2004) you can use the RAM
# above 15 MB. This option allows the use of this range of RAM.
#large-memory

# With all newer systems you can boot from any partition on disks 
# with more than 1024 cylinders. This option allows the use of 
# partitions above 1024 cylinders.
lba32

# Defines the boot device.  This is where Lilo installs its boot
# block.  It can be either a partition, or the raw device, in which
# case it installs in the MBR, and will overwrite the current MBR.
# With newer kernel you should use the ID of the boot device, which
# can be found here: /dev/disks/by-id/ata*.
boot = /dev/sda

# Defines the partition which is the root partition. This partition
# will be mounted at first from the kernel. With newer kernel you
# should use the UUID (UUID="...") of the root device, which can be
# found here: /dev/disks/by-uuid/*.
root = /dev/sda1

# This option may be needed for some software RAID installs.
#raid-extra-boot = mbr-only

# Enable map compaction.  This tries to merge read requests for 
# adjacent sectors into a single read request. This drastically 
# reduces load time and keeps the map smaller.  Using 'compact' 
# is especially recommended when booting from a floppy disk.  
# It is disabled here by default because it doesn't always work.
#compact

# Set the verbose level for bootloader installation. Value range:
# 0 to 5. Default value is 0.
#verbose = 1

# Specifies the location of the map file. Lilo creates the (sector) 
# map file of direct sector addresses which are independent of any
# filesystem.
map = /boot/map

# ---------------------------------------------------------------

# Specifies the menu interface. You have the choice between:
#   text: simple text menu with black background and white text
#   menu: configurable text menu with background and text colors.
#   bmp:  graphical menu with 640x480 bitmap background.
install = menu

# A) Customized boot message for choice 'text'.
# For the simple text menu you can set an extra message in the 
# created file. Its text will be displayed before boot prompt.
#message = /boot/message.txt

# B) Configuration of the scheme for choice 'menu'.
# Use following coding: <text>:<highlight>:<border>:<title>
# The first character of each part sets the text frontcolor, 
# the second character of earch part sets the text backcolor,
# an upper-case character sets bold face text (frontcolor).
#
# E.g. 'menu-scheme=wm:rw:wm:Wm'. Possible colors: 
# k=black, b=blue, g=green, c=cyan, r=red, m=magenta, y=yellow, w=white.
menu-scheme = Wb:Yr:Wb:Wb
#menu-title = " DESDEMONA Boot-Manager "

# C) Configuration of the image for choice 'bmp'.
# For the graphical menu you need a bitmap file, which needs a special
# menu configuration in the file header (see: lilo -E). Ideally you 
# use one of the delivered images of the lilo package.
#   with 16 colors:    onlyblue, tuxlogo, inside
#   with 256 colors:   coffee
#   for Debian:        debianlilo, debian, debian-de
#bitmap = /boot/tuxlogo.bmp

# ---------------------------------------------------------------

# Specifies the number of deciseconds (0.1 seconds) how long LILO 
# should wait before booting the first image.  LILO doesn't wait if
# 'delay' is omitted or set to zero. You do not see the defined menu.
#delay = 20

# Prompt to start one certain kernel from the displayed menu.
# It is very recommeded to also set 'timeout'. Without timeout boot 
# will not take place unless you hit return. Timeout is the number
# of deciseconds (0.1 seconds) after there the default image will 
# be started. With 'single-key' alias numbers for each menu line can
# be used.
prompt
timeout = 100
#single-key

# ---------------------------------------------------------------

# Specifying the VGA text mode that should be selected when booting.
# The following values are recognized (case is ignored):
#   vga=normal    80x25 text mode (default)
#   vga=extended  80x50 text mode (abbreviated to 'ext')
#   vga=ask       stop and ask for user input: choice of text mode
#   vga=<mode>    use the corresponding text mode number. A list of  
#                   available modes can be obtained by booting with  
#                   'vga=ask' and then pressing [Enter].
#
# Another way is the use of frame buffer mode. Then the kernel 
# will switch from the normal vga text mode (80x25) to the frame
# buffer <mode> (if frame buffer support is in the kernel):
#                   16bit:    32bit:
#     640x480 :     0x311     0x312
#     800x600 :     0x314     0x315
#    1024x768 :     0x317     0x318
#    1280x960 :     0x365     0x366
#    1280x1024:     0x31A     0x31B
#    1400x1050:     0x345     0x346
#    1600x1200:     0x333     0x334
#    1680x1050:     0x3D2     0x3D4
#    1920x1440:     0x337     0x338
#vga = ask
vga = normal
#vga = 0x317

# Set a password here and uncomment the 'restricted' lines in
# the image definitions below. Then a password must be typed
# to boot anything but a default configuration. If a command
# line is given, other than one specified by an 'append'
# statement in this lilo.conf, the password is required, but
# a standard default boot will not require one.
#
# If anyone have access to the console, with this password and
# the 'restricted' option you prevent booting with something
# like 'Linux init=/bin/sh' and thus becoming `root' without
# proper authorization.
#password = count4this

# Kernel command line options that apply to all installed images go
# here.  See 'kernel-parameters.txt' in the Linux kernel 'Documentation'
# directory. I.g. for start into 'init 5' write:  append="5"
#append = ""
 
# If you used a serial console to install Debian, this option should be
# enabled by default.

# Set the image which should be started after delay or timeout.
# If not set, the first defined image will be started.

# ################### LILO per-image section ####################

# Each image is configured with the linux kernel (=image) and
# usually with the initrd file. Configure all GNU/Linux systems
# on other partitions, too.

# Warning: labels must be less than 16 characters long.

#	root = /dev/sdb1
	read-only
#	restricted
#	alias = 2
