disk parameter in lilo.conf
Hi, I tried to include the lines disk=/dev/sda bios=0x80 disk=/dev/hda bios=0x81 into lilo.conf. I found it working this way: <bootloader> <global config:type="list"> <global_entry> <key>disk</key> <value>disk=/dev/sda bios=0x80</value> </global_entry> <global_entry> <key>disk</key> <value>disk=/dev/hda bios=0x81</value> </global_entry> </global> ... </bootloader> However, from the description on the web page I was afraid this would end up as disk = "disk=/dev/sda bios=0x80" like it does with the other key/value pairs which always come out as key = "value". Of course, it is great that it works this way! I just wanted to ask if this is intended (since I found no hint in the docu) or just a bug. If it is a bug, it should be recognized a feature and kept in future versions :-)) The way it works now allows us to install everything on our servers that have scsi and ide disks, which is great since it did not work in SuSE 9.0 :-))) cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform.
