Re: [Plug] A question about installing Linux
|
The manual in question can be found in /usr/doc/lilo. There are a lot
of source files for the manuals for lilo
There is a Make file that will create a nice set of postscript manuals
which I have printed and put in a binder for my personal reference. I
have found that having a printed manual describing lilo around when your
sustem hangs during the boot process has been most useful for the online
docs anr not available.
