The second &architecture; boot loader is called <quote>LILO</quote>.
|
| 10 |
|
|
It is an old complex program which offers lots of functionality,
|
| 11 |
|
|
including DOS, Windows, and OS/2 boot management. Please carefully
|
| 12 |
|
|
read the instructions in the directory
|
| 13 |
|
|
<filename>/usr/share/doc/lilo/</filename> if you have special needs;
|
| 14 |
|
|
also see the <ulink url="&url-lilo-howto;">LILO mini-HOWTO</ulink>.

&d-i; presents you three choices where to install the

|

<command>LILO</command> boot loader:

<term>Master Boot Record (MBR)</term><listitem><para>
|

|
|
|
| 25 |
|
|
This way the <command>LILO</command> will take complete control of the
|
| 26 |
|
|
boot process.

Choose this if you want to use another boot
|
| 33 |
|
|
manager. <command>LILO</command> will install itself at the begining
|
| 34 |
|
|
of the new Debian partition and it will serve as a secondary boot
|
| 35 |
|
|
loader.

Useful for advanced users who want to install <command>LILO</command>
|
| 42 |
|
|
somewhere else. In this case you will be asked for desired
|
| 43 |
|
|
location. You can use devfs style names, such as those that start with
|
| 44 |
|
|
<filename>/dev/ide</filename>, <filename>/dev/scsi</filename>, and
|
| 45 |
|
|
<filename>/dev/discs</filename>, as well as traditional names, such as
|
| 46 |
|
|
<filename>/dev/hda</filename> or <filename>/dev/sda</filename>.

If you can no longer boot into Windows 9x (or DOS) after this step,
|
| 54 |
|
|
you'll need to use a Windows 9x (MS-DOS) boot disk and use the
|
| 55 |
|
|
<userinput>fdisk /mbr</userinput> command to reinstall the MS-DOS
|
| 56 |
|
|
master boot record — however, this means that you'll need to use
|
| 57 |
|
|
some other way to get back into Debian! For more information on this
|
| 58 |
|

please read <xref linkend="reactivating-win"/>.
