no ... delay is a valid option what is missing is a timeout line ... but that depends ... lilo will boot without a timeout line (i think) ... i just dont know what the default timeout value is ... <snip http://home.san.rr.com/johninsd/pub/linux/lilo/sample/lilo.sample.conf> # We always want to see the prompt with a 15 second timeout prompt timeout=150 # # If a LOCKed command line, or pre-stored command line is present # delay 3 seconds to allow cancellation with the Shift key delay=30 </snip> Oh I didnt realize that, sorry. Actually it doesnt boot, it requires the user to hit enter to boot the distro, just a suggestion, you might want to add that in. you are correct that it should be in there though ;) |
