Hi,
In addition to yesterday's post I'll submit an example /etc/lilo.conf and
here is the url of the website where you can find the lilo patch:
http://tienstra4.flatnet.tudelft.nl/~gerte/gen2dmraid/lilo-22.6-dmraid.patch
--------------example /etc/lilo.conf to use with a dmraid patched lilo -----
#Use lba32 to make sure lilo works even if
# geometry settings are guessed wrong.
lba32
boot=/dev/mapper/sil_0318190312101_p1
map=/boot/.map
#this line is very important if your raid isn't 0x80 to your BIOS
#disk=/dev/mapper/sil_0318190312101 bios=0x81
prompt
timeout=150
delay = 50
default=2.6.9
image = /boot/vmlinuz
initrd=/boot/initrd #the initrd created by dmraidinitrd
root = /dev/ram0
append="init=/linuxrc real_root=/dev/mapper/sil_0318190312101_p4"
label = "2.6.9"
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Please, send me your feedback. If the example above doesn't work, (lilo
crashes when booting) set the line disk= to the correct bios value.
Best regards,
Gerte
