+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+lilo installs a boot loader that will be activated the next time you boot
+your system. The default configuration file \fI/etc/lilo.conf\fR (see manpage
+\&\fIlilo.conf\fR\|(5)) will contain most options, but many, including those which
+override the configuration file, may be specified on the command line.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.IX Header "OPTIONS"
+.IP "\fB\-A\fR \fImaster-device [N]\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-A master-device [N]"
+Used with a single argument, inquire of active partition on device \fImaster-device\fR;
+e.g. \fI/dev/sda\fR. With N==0: deactivate all partitions on the device. With N in
+the range [1..n]: activate the specified partition and deactivate all others.
+Normally, only primary partitions [1..4] may be activated, but if the 'Extended
+Master Boot Loader' is present on the Master Boot Record (\s-1MBR\s0) of the device
+(see the \-M option), any partition may be made active. Whether the actual \s-1OS\s0
+in the partition will boot from a logical partition depends on the characteristics
+of the \s-1OS. LILO\s0 boot records for Linux may be booted from a logical partition.
+.IP "\fB\-b\fR \fIbootdev\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-b bootdev"
+Set the boot device where the boot loader will be installed. For example
+\&\fI\*(L"\-b /dev/sda\*(R"\fR set the Master Boot Record (\s-1MBR\s0) on the first disk as boot
+device. \fI\*(L"\-b /dev/sdb5\*(R"\fR set the first logical partition on the second disk
+as boot device.
+.IP "\fB\-B\fR \fIbitmap-file\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-B bitmap-file"
+Define a bitmap file for the boot-time graphics screen, preferably one already
+pre-processed with the \fI\-E\fR option.
+.IP "\fB\-c\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-c"
+Enable map compaction. This will merge read requests from adjacent sectors.
+Speeds up the booting especially from floppy.
+.IP "\fB\-C\fR \fIconfig-file\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-C config-file"
+Set another pathname and filename for the configuration file. The default
+configuration file is \fI/etc/lilo.conf\fR.
+.IP "\fB\-d\fR \fIdelay-time\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-d delay-time"
+Set the delay time in tenths of a second ('20' = 2 sec) before automatically
+booting the first image. This give you time to interrupt the automatic boot
+process with: Shift, Alt, Ctrl, ScrollLock, or CapsLock. If interrupted, the
+\&\fIboot:\fR prompt will be displayed.
+.Sp
+This switch will be overridden by the appearance of \fIprompt\fR in the
+configuration file!
+.IP "\fB\-D\fR \fIlabel\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-D label"
+Use the kernel with the given label as the default kernel to boot, instead of
+the first one in the list of the configuration file.
+.IP "\fB\-E\fR \fIfilename.xxx\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-E filename.xxx"
+If the extension \fB.xxx\fR is \fB.bmp\fR, then take the file to be a bitmap graphic file
+for use in the \fIbitmap=\fR configuration file directive. Enter an interactive
+editor to create or update the color/placement information in the \s-1LILO\s0 header
+of this bitmap file. (see \fIbmp-colors\fR, \fIbmp-table\fR, and \fIbmp-timer\fR on the
+manual page for \fIlilo.conf (5)\fR.)
+.Sp
+If \fB.xxx\fR is \fB.dat\fR then take this file to be a configuration file to set bitmap
+graphic parameters, which are transferred into the \s-1LILO\s0 header in the bitmap file
+of the same name.
+.Sp
+When a \fB.bmp\fR file is modified using a graphics editor (e.g. \s-1GIMP\s0), the \s-1LILO\s0
+header will be lost. It can be restored using the \fBdat\fR file, which is used as
+a text-based backup for the \s-1LILO\s0 header information.
+.IP "\fB\-f\fR \fIdisk-tab\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-f disk-tab"
+Set another disk geometry parameter file. The default is \fI/etc/disktab\fR.
+.IP "\fB\-F\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-F"
+Override boot sector check for filesystems (e.g., swap, ext4, xfs ...) which
+might be destroyed by the installation of the \s-1LILO\s0 boot sector on the first
+sector of the partition if these filesystems use the first sector as a superblock.
+.Sp
+Compare with \fI\-P ignore\fR, which bypasses certain partition table checks.
+.IP "\fB\-g\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-g"
+Generate 'cylinder/head/sector' (\s-1CHS\s0 geometric) disk addresses. Limited to cylinders
+up to 1023. Forces compatibility with very old versions of \s-1LILO \s0\fI(obsolete switch)\fR.
+.IP "\fB\-H\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-H"
+Override fatal halt if a \s-1RAID\s0 array does not have all disks active.
+.IP "\fB\-I\fR \fIlabel [D|a|i|k|r|R]\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-I label [D|a|i|k|r|R]"
+\&\fBlabel\fR is taken to be the name of an image specified in the configuration file.
+This command will print the path name of the corresponding kernel file, keytable
+file, initial ramdisk file, root specification, or \*(L"append=\*(R" string (\*(L"i\*(R", \*(L"k\*(R",
+\&\*(L"r\*(R", \*(L"R\*(R", or \*(L"a\*(R" option). The \*(L"D\*(R" option ignores the \fBlabel\fR parameter and
+prints the default \*(L"image=\*(R" label, or the first \*(L"image=\*(R" label is selected if
+no default \fBimage\fR is set.
+.IP "\fB\-l\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-l"
+Generate 24\-bit linear sector addresses instead of cylinder/head/sector addresses.
+.IP "\fB\-L\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-L"
+Generate 32\-bit Logical Block Addresses (\s-1LBA\s0) instead of cylinder/head/sector (\s-1CHS\s0)
+addresses, allowing access to all partitions on disks with more than 1024 cylinders.
+(This is the default geometry).
+.IP "\fB\-m\fR \fImap-file\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-m map-file"
+Use another map file instead of the default file /boot/map.
+.IP "\fB\-M\fR \fImaster-device\fR \fB{mbr|ext}\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-M master-device {mbr|ext}"
+Install a Master Boot Record on the device specified as master-device, selecting
+the Standard or Extended Master Boot Loader per option. The primary partition
+table on master-device is undisturbed. If no valid Volume-ID (serial number) is
+present, then generate one and write it to the \s-1MBR.\s0 If \fImbr\fR is set, the
+Standard Master Boot Loader will search partitions 1\-4 for an active flag, and
+boot the flagged partition. Only one active flag is allowed. If \fIext\fR is set,
+the search for an active partition will include logical partitions as well.
+The presence of the Extended Master Boot Loader on the Master Boot Record
+(\s-1MBR\s0 = sector 0) of a disk affects the operation of the \fI\-A\fR option.
+.IP "\fB\-p\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-p"
+Require interactive entry of all passwords set as "" in the configuration file.
+.IP "\fB\-P\fR \fI{fix|ignore|<global\-option\fR}>" 4
+.IX Item "-P {fix|ignore|<global-option}>"
+Fix or ignore 'corrupt' partition tables, e.g. partition tables with linear and
+cylinder/head/sector addresses that do not correspond. Always try \fBignore\fR
+first, as \fBfix\fR will re-write the partition table, possibly destroying all
+partitions on the disk.
+.Sp
+\&\fBignore\fR is also used to bypass the partition table check for partition types
+within the partition table which might not allow the installation of a \s-1LILO\s0 boot
+sector. Compare with the '\-F' flag, which overrides the check of the actual
+boot sector.
+.Sp
+\&\fB<global\-option>\fR allows the passing of any global option which may
+appear in the global section (top) of the configuration file (\fI/etc/lilo.conf\fR).
+For instance \fI'\-P nowarn'\fR will pass the 'nowarn' option, just as though 'nowarn'
+appeared in the configuration file (same as the '\-w' switch). Similarly
+\&\fI'\-P timeout=50'\fR will add or override the 'timeout=' line in the configuration
+file. Note that the general \fB\-P\fR switch actually duplicates a number of command
+line option switches. However, it is not strictly the same as some switches which
+cause an override of other options; e.g. '\-g' (\-P geometric), '\-L' (\-P lba32).
+.IP "\fB\-q\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-q"
+List the currently mapped files. \fBlilo\fR maintains a file, by default \fI/boot/map\fR,
+containing each name and location of the kernel(s) to boot. This option will list
+the names therein. Use with \fB\-v\fR for more detailed information about the
+installed boot loader.
+.IP "\fB\-r\fR \fIroot-directory\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-r root-directory"
+Before doing anything else, do a \fI'chroot'\fR to the indicated directory. The new
+root directory must contain a \fI/dev\fR directory and may need a /boot directory.
+It may also need an \fI/etc/lilo.conf\fR file.
+.IP "\fB\-R\fR \fIcommand-line\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-R command-line"
+This option sets the default command for the boot loader for the next time it
+executes. After execution the boot loader will erase this line because it is a
+once-only command. It is typically used in reboot scripts, just before calling
+\&'shutdown \-r'. Used without any arguments, it will cancel a \fIlock\fR\-ed or
+\&\fIfallback\fR command line.
+.Sp
+This Command line starts with image identifier (as shown during map file update),
+then space, then kernel parameters. The kernel parameters are appended to kernel
+command line constructed routinely. In either case, it there were parameters
+or not, such one-time command will be treated by loaders code, as if it is set
+at 'boot:' prompt. This could lead to 'password:' prompt at boot time. Be warned!
+Refer to \fI\fIlilo.conf\fI\|(5)\fR for details.
+.IP "\fB\-s\fR \fIsave-file\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-s save-file"
+When lilo writes a new boot sector, it preserves the former contents of the boot
+sector in a file, named by default /boot/boot.NNNN, where \s-1NNNN\s0 is the hexadecimal
+representation of the major and minor device numbers of the drive/partition.
+.Sp
+This option defines the backup save file in one of three ways: a save directory
+(default is '/boot') using the default filename 'boot.NNNN' in the defined
+directory; a pathname template to which '.NNNN' is appended (default would be
+\&'/boot/boot'); or the full pathname of the file, which must include the correct
+\&'.NNNN' suffix. When used with the \-u option, the full file pathname must be set.
+.IP "\fB\-S\fR \fIsave-file\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-S save-file"
+Normally lilo will not overwrite an existing boot sector save file. This options
+says that overwriting is to be forced. As with \-s, the setting may be of a save
+directory, pathname template, or full pathname (which includes the '.NNNN' suffix).
+.IP "\fB\-t\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-t"
+Test only. Do not really write a new boot sector or map file. Use together with
+\&\fB\-v\fR to find out what lilo is about to do.
+.IP "\fB\-T\fR \fIoption\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-T option"
+Print out system information, some of it extracted from system bios. This is more
+convenient than booting the \s-1LILO\s0 diagnostic floppy on problem systems. \fBoption\fR
+may be any one of the following:
+.Sp
+.Vb 11
+\& help print a list of available diagnostics
+\& ChRul list the partition types subject to
+\& Change\-Rules
+\& EBDA list Extended BIOS Data Area information
+\& geom=<drive> list drive geometry for bios drive;
+\& e.g. geom=0x80
+\& geom list drive geometry for all drives
+\& table=<drive> list the primary partition table;
+\& e.g. table=/dev/sda
+\& video list graphic modes available to boot
+\& loader
+.Ve
+.IP "\fB\-u\fR \fI[device\-name]\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-u [device-name]"
+Uninstall lilo by copying the saved boot sector back. The \fB\-s\fR and \fB\-C\fR switches
+may be used with this option. The device-name is optional. A time-stamp is
+checked.
+.IP "\fB\-U\fR \fI[device\-name]\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-U [device-name]"
+The same as '\-u', but do not check the time-stamp.
+.IP "\fB\-v\fR \fI[number]\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-v [number]"
+Increase verbosity. Giving one to five \fB\-v\fR options will make lilo more verbose.
+The \fBnumber\fR (range 1..5) set verbosity level.
+.IP "\fB\-V\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-V"
+Print version number.
+.IP "\fB\-w\fR\fI[+|\-]\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-w[+|-]"
+Used as \fB\-w\fR or \fB\-w\-\fR to suppress warning messages. Used as '\-w+' to override
+\&\fI'nowarn'\fR in the configuration file and show warning messages.
+.IP "\fB\-x\fR \fIoption\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-x option"
+For \s-1RAID\s0 installations only. The option may be any of the keywords: \fInone\fR,
+\&\fIauto\fR, \fImbr\fR, \fImbr-only\fR, or a comma separated list of additional boot
+devices (no spaces allowed in the list).
+.Sp
+\&\s-1RAID\s0 installations write the boot record to the \s-1RAID\s0 partition. Conditional
+writing of MBRs may occur to aid in making the \s-1RAID\s0 set bootable in a recovery
+situation, but all default actions may be overridden. Action similar to previous
+versions is achieved using the \fI'\-x mbr\-only'\fR switch.
+.IP "\fB\-X\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-X"
+Reserved for \s-1LILO\s0 internal use. May produce different output for different \s-1LILO\s0
+versions. The line beginning \*(L"CFLAGS=\*(R" will contain the compiler options used to
+generate this version of \s-1LILO.\s0
+.IP "\fB\-z\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-z"
+When used with the '\-M' switch, clears the Volume-ID. Usually used in the
+following sequence to generate a new Volume-ID:
+.Sp
+.Vb 2

+Allows overriding the default video mode upon kernel startup.
+.SH "BOOT ERRORS"
+.IX Header "BOOT ERRORS"
+The boot process takes place in two stages. The first stage loader is a single
+sector, and is loaded by the \s-1BIOS\s0 or by the loader in the \s-1MBR.\s0 It loads the
+multi-sector second stage loader, but is very space limited. When the first
+stage loader gets control, it types the letter 'L'; when it is ready to
+transfer control to the second stage loader it types the letter 'I'. If any
+error occurs, like a disk read error, it will put out a hexadecimal error code
+and then re-try the operation. All hex error codes are \s-1BIOS\s0 return values,
+except for the lilo-generated codes: 40, 99 and 9A. A partial list of error
+codes follows:
+.PP
+.Vb 10
+\& 00 no error
+\& 01 invalid disk command
+\& 02 address mark not found
+\& 03 disk write\-protected
+\& 04 sector not found
+\& 06 floppy disk removed
+\& 08 DMA overrun
+\& 0A bad sector flag
+\& 0B bad track flag
+\& 20 controller failure
+\& 40 seek failure (BIOS)
+\& 40 cylinder>1023 (LILO)
+\& 99 invalid second stage index sector (LILO)
+\& 9A no second stage loader signature (LILO)
+\& AA drive not ready
+\& FF sense operation failed
+.Ve
+.PP
+Error code 40 is generated by the \s-1BIOS,\s0 or by \s-1LILO\s0 during the conversion of a
+linear (24\-bit) disk address to a geometric (C:H:S) address. On older systems
+which do not support lba32 (32\-bit) addressing, this error may also be generated.
+Errors 99 and 9A usually mean the map file ('\-m' or 'map=') is not readable,
+likely because \s-1LILO\s0 was not re-run after some system change, or there is a
+geometry mismatch between what \s-1LILO\s0 used (lilo \-v3 to display) and what is
+actually being used by the \s-1BIOS \s0(one of the lilo diagnostic disks, available
+in the source distribution, may be needed to diagnose this problem).
+.PP
+When the second stage loader has received control from the first stage, it
+prints the letter 'L', and when it has initialized itself, including verifying
+the \*(L"Descriptor Table\*(R" \- the list of kernels/others to boot \- it will print
+the letter \*(L"O\*(R", to form the full word \*(L"\s-1LILO\*(R",\s0 in uppercase.
+.PP
+All second stage loader error messages are English text and try to pinpoint,
+more or less successfully, the point of failure.
+.SH "BUGS"
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+Configuration file options 'backup' and 'force\-backup' should specify a backup
+directory or backup file pathname template on all \s-1RAID\s0 installations. Use of an
+explicit filename may not allow multiple backup files to be created correctly.
+It is best to use the default mechanism, as it works correctly in all cases.
