* /etc/lilo.conf.in: Revert root= hardcodingP. J. McDermott2014-11-101-21/+6
| | | | | We'll use root=PARTUUID= with MBR disk signatures, which Linux supports since version 3.8 (commit d33b98f).
* /etc/lilo.conf.in: Use branding, add menu entriesP. J. McDermott2014-11-091-7/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two things happened in the menu entries: 1. With the ProteanOS logo in the background image, we don't need "ProteanOS 1.0" in the menu entry labels. This gives us back characters that we can use to better describe the options, instead of using obscure "~" and "+" symbols for "Old kernel" and "Large font", respectively. 2. Two possible roots (sda1 and sdb1) are now hardcoded. They can be selected at boot time. This obviates an install-time question about what the root will be called on the running system. There are now twice as many menu entries.
* lilo: Move root option into appendP. J. McDermott2014-07-211-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | LILO tries to stat() the specified root device. If that fails, LILO expects that the given root option is numeric. If something like "/dev/sdb1" is given on a system with no "/dev/sdb1" device node, LILO throws an error: "Fatal: Illegal 'root=' specification: /dev/sdb1". This all happens in dev_number() in src/bsect.c.
* Add run-time configuration for liloP. J. McDermott2014-07-151-0/+26
