Re: Kernel parameters on bootdisk

[Mark Carroll]

Of course, Jeremiah Mahler's idea worked. I made the script,

        #!/bin/bash

        set -e

        mkfs -c /dev/fd0
        mount /dev/fd0
        </vmlinuz cat >/floppy/vmlinuz
        lilo -C ~/lilo-bootdisc.conf
        umount /dev/fd0

And lilo-bootdisc.conf was,

        compact
        boot=/dev/fd0
        install=/boot/boot.b
        map=/boot/map
        delay=40

        image=/floppy/vmlinuz
                label=Linux
                root=/dev/hda2
                read-only
                append="whatever..."

...and all works fine. (-:
