5We're not going to create lilo's configuration file from scratch, but we'll
6use the file from your normal Linux system. This file is different on every
7machine and thus I can't create it here. Since you would want to have the
8same options regarding lilo as you have when you're using your normal Linux
9system you would create the file exactly as it is on the normal system.

13Copy the Lilo configuration file and kernel images that Lilo uses by
14running the following commands from a shell on your normal Linux system.
15Don't execute these commands from your chroot'ed shell.

26Before you can execute the second command you need to know the names of
27the kernel images. You can't just copy all files from the /boot
28directory. The /etc/lilo.conf file contains the names of the kernel
29images you're using. Open the file and look for lines like this:

39Look for all <emphasis>image</emphasis> variables and their values
40represent the name and location of the image files. These files will
41usually be in /boot but they might be in other directories as well,
42depending on your distribution's conventions.
