LILO.CONF(5)                                         LILO.CONF(5)

NAME
       lilo.conf - configuration file for lilo

DESCRIPTION
       This  file, by default /etc/lilo.conf, is read by the boot
       loader installer 'lilo' (see lilo(8)).

       It might look as follows:

              # lilo.conf
              #
              #  global options:
              boot=/dev/hda
              prompt
              timeout=150

       Comment  lines may appear anywhere, and begin with the "#"
