4<title>Installation of Lilo</title>
5
6<para>We have chosen Lilo as a boot loader because we feel comfortable with it, but you
7may wish to choose another. Fabio Fracassi has written a hint on
8GRUB, which is available at <ulink url="&hints-root;grub-howto.txt"/>.</para>
9
10<para>Compile Lilo:</para>
11
12<para><screen><userinput>make</userinput></screen></para>
13
14<para>And finish off installing the package:</para>
15
16<para><screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen></para>
17
18<para>It appears that compilation of this package fails on certain machines
19when the -g compiler flag is used. If you can't compile Lilo at
20all, you should try to remove the -g value from the CFLAGS variable in the
21<filename>Makefile</filename> file.</para>
22
23<para>At the end of the installation the make install process will print a
24message stating that /sbin/lilo has to be executed to complete the
25update. Don't do this, as it has no use: the /etc/lilo.conf isn't present
26yet. We will complete the installation of lilo in Chapter 8.</para>
27
28<para>The standard LILO prompt, or menu, may be replaced by the
29LFS logo or any logo you like. Martin Imobersteg has written a
30hint about this, which is located at
31<ulink url="&hints-root;bootlogo.txt"/>.</para>
