lilo examples point to deprecated /dev/hda instead of /dev/sda
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2013-06-19 02:59:54 UTC
what examples exactly ?  are you talking about just lilo.conf ?
Comment 2 three sixes 2014-03-12 11:35:46 UTC
yes, lilo.conf.example....  also worth noting that it should ship with a lilo.conf & "just work" out of the box...
Comment 3 Tony Vroon (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-01-22 10:46:59 UTC
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.

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.

    sys-boot/lilo: Fix bugs #377427 and #473620
    
    Remove 'keepdir /boot' from src_install to address #377427
    and update the example lilo.conf in FILESDIR to reference 'sda'
    instead of 'hda' (name for older PATA drives) to fix #473620.
