Should we work maybe on just using/adapting/extending the existing
/usr/sbin/liloconfig script? If not, why not?
FYI, there are many lilo bugs in boot-floppies, search for lilo. This
is a pretty good log of the missing functionality. It seems to me
that /usr/sbin/liloconfig just needs to be hacked to ask for an
optional 'append' string, and maybe adapted for our needs (i.e.,
alternative mount point, i.e., /target, for installling lilo prior to
booting into the new base system, and we're done.
