Bug still present in LM9.2 final. I am using lilo in text mode. 
 
/etc/lilo.conf has "timeout=50" but /boot/message-text says: 
 
        Welcome to LILO the operating system chooser! 
 
        Choose an operating system from the list above or 
        wait 10 seconds for default boot. 
 
Obviously, /boot/message* files need to be updated when the timeout parameter 
is changed in /etc/lilo.conf.

description: 
I have chosen text-based LILO as bootloader. The default OS kicks in after 5 
seconds of wait. When the LILO prompt appears, the timer shows the correct 
time (starts at 5 seconds and starts countdown). However, the LILO help-text 
(which explains what to to do to stop the timer) says that the timeout period 
is 10 seconds.  
 
Obviously, whichever file contains this message is not updated if the timeout 
period is changed from the default of 10 seconds. Hence, the wrong info.
