Kernel name translation

Determines the path of the kernel.

=/sbin/lilo

-I name

by

-C config_file

Specifies an alternate configuration file. See also section 3.1.1.
-I name options

Translates the specified label name to the path of the corresponding kernel image and prints that path on standard output. This can be used to synchronize files that depend on the kernel (e.g. the ps database). The image name can be obtained from the environment variable BOOT_IMAGE. An error message is issued and a non-zero exit code is returned if no matching label name can be found. The existence of the image file is verified if the option character v is added.
