[Clfs-support] lilo

[Koornstra, Reinoud]

Well, it booted. :-)
I removed the first disk and now the second disk is the first disk.
I changed the stuff to go to use console in inittab as you specified in the book.
An issue, what I actually like to do is to have the disk inserted in another system.
I did so, but it won't boot.
Perhaps the sata controller is different and sees the disk somewhat different than the sata controller on the machine I build it on?
Btw, maybe the book can add now a way if you're doing the stuff on a second disk and want to have that disk as primary disk?
Going to section 9 now. :-)
Kind Regards,

Reinoud.

 Did you find anything in google ?  I no longer recall exactly what
the map file does, but it has nothing to do with System.map.

 As I said, I'm not familiar with the details of putting lilo onto a
second disk and using that to replace the original.  Certainly, it
has written a boot sector with the location of the clfs kernel onto
one of your disks, so it seems reasonable.

 If you are taking the "boot" route, you have no choice but to
reboot.  Devices other than console and null  are created by udev.
