.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
liloconfig is an simple program for creating a new lilo.conf file.
After creating the new configuration file you must execute '/sbin/lilo'.
.PP
liloconfig use the lilo.example.conf file as template. In the final
lilo.conf file you find many useful comments for custom changes.
.PP
Please pay attention about error messages if liloconfig cannot find
any images (/boot/vmlinuz*) oder image symlinks (/vmlinuz, /vmlinu.old).
Then you need to search for images by ourself and make some changes
in the '/etc/lilo.conf' file. Otherwise no bootloader can be installed
with '/sbin/lilo'.
