- If the post install script finds VMELILO on the system (/sbin/vmelilo),
- it checks to see if a configuration file (/etc/vmelilo.conf) already
- exists. If not, it creates a boilerplate VMELILO configuration file
- that will work with the image just installed, as follows.
-
- It looks into /etc/fstab, looking for the device that the root (/)
- directory is on, ignoring swap, NFS and proc file systems it assumes
- that the drive that the root device is on should be where VMELILO
- installs the boot sector (this is not good for all installations, but
- it gives a starting point) and inserts lines like (assuming the root
- directory is on /dev/sda2):
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- boot = /dev/sda
- root = /dev/sda2
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- and then appends the following:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- default = Linux
- delay = 2
-
- [boot]
- label = Linux
- image = /vmlinuz
- read-only
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
