But in the base system we won't got grub or bmconf for example, so we
need udebs for other loaders (I think), and in this case it will be
clearer if we got an udeb for lilo. It is good also, because then you
can use lilo from the shell without a base system installed. So if 32776
byte is not too big, I think it is good.
