When doing a distribution upgrade I got a message telling me to issue the following command:readlink /boot/boot.b | cut -f2 -d- | cut -f1 -d in order to find out the parameter for "install =" in /etc/lilo.conf By issuing the command: readlink /boot/boot.b | cut -f2 -d- | cut -f1 -d- [note an additional hyphen at the end] I get the response "menu.b"But there is no /boot/menu.b, so my question is, what am I supposed to put in the install line?
You probably don't need to specify the 'install' option at all. Since you dist-upgrade'd, I assume you are at lilo > 22.3. It should default to 'menu', which is probably what you want.
See 'man lilo.conf' for the 'install' option. dircha
