lilo examples point to deprecated /dev/hda instead of /dev/sda
what examples exactly ? are you talking about just lilo.conf ?
yes, lilo.conf.example.... also worth noting that it should ship with a lilo.conf & "just work" out of the box...
The Just Works(TM) experience is provided by dolilo, which is enabled unless you set USE="minimal". If you have a patch to update the example configuration file, or a new example, please attach it to the bug report.
Created attachment 613108 [details, diff] sys-boot/lilo: replace hda with sda in example conf Replaces /dev/hda with /dev/sda in example config. The sample lilo.example.conf's in all sources already use /dev/sda.
