Bug#75106: installing LILO on boot partition



Howdy,

This bug laments that dbootstrap presents the boot partition,
rather than the root partition, as the location for installing
LILO if they are different.  I tried this on my machine, and LILO
was able to boot from this setup just fine.  So I think this bug
report should be closed.

That is to say, I now have the following setup:

/dev/hda		MBR installed here
/dev/hda1	/boot	LILO installed here
/dev/hda2	/
/dev/hdb1	swap
/dev/hdb2		old /home hierarchy

It boots fine.

Matt
