I believe I need to use lilo instead of grub since all of my drives are under hardware SCSI RAID (dpt_i2o) (otherwise system hangs during boot after install). My first thoughts on how to do this, is to use: <bootloader> <activate config:type="boolean" >false</activate> <linear config:type="boolean" >false</linear> <parameters></parameters> </bootloader> and then: <chroot-scripts config:type="list" > <script> <filename>lilo.sh</filename> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <source> <![CDATA[ #!/bin/sh lilo -b /dev/sda ]]> </source> </script> </chroot-scripts> I am unfamiliar with using lilo without it's lilo.conf file, but I am going to try testing the above and variations of it until I get it working (hopefully). Does anybody have a better suggestion or tips? Thanks, John Young
