It can be either a partition, or the raw device, in which # case it installs in the MBR, and will overwrite the current MBR. # boot=/dev/hda # Specifies the device that should be mounted as root.

The following values are recognized (case is ignored): # NORMAL select normal 80x25 text mode. # EXTENDED select 80x50 text mode. The word EXTENDED can be # abbreviated to EXT. # ASK stop and ask for user input (at boot time). # use the corresponding text mode. A list of available modes # can be obtained by booting with vga=ask and pressing [Enter]. vga=791 # You can set a password here, and uncomment the 'restricted' lines # in the image definitions below to make it so that 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 'lilo.conf', the password will be required, but a # standard default boot will not require one. # # This will, for instance, prevent anyone with access to the # console from booting with something like 'Linux init=/bin/sh', # and thus becoming 'root' without proper authorization. # # Note that if you really need this type of security, you will # likely also want to use 'install-mbr' to reconfigure the MBR # program, as well as set up your BIOS to disallow booting from # removable disk or CD-ROM, then put a password on getting into the # BIOS configuration as well. Please RTFM 'install-mbr(8)'. # # password=tatercounter2000 # You can put a customized boot message up if you like.
