./wip/lilo, Generic boot loader for Linux

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 22.5.9, Package name: lilo-22.5.9, Maintainer: reed

LILO is the Linux boot loader. It includes combined boot sector,
generic chain loader, map installer, and a simple boot partition setter.
LILO allows booting from multiple disks, and can have menus for choosing
different boot images. LILO is also able to pass command-line options
to the Linux kernel.

LILO does not depend on a specific file system, can boot Linux kernel
images from floppy disks and from hard disks, and can even act as a
"boot manager" for other operating systems.

LILO should be ran whenever any part of the system that it knows about
changes, e.g. after installing a new kernel.

Log message:
Convert all packages using REPLACE_INTERPRETER to the new variable names
without underscores (REPLACE.*.old, REPLACE.*.new, and REPLACE_FILES.*).

Also convert REPLACE.*.new= ${SH:Q} back to ${SH}, as it should not be quoted
here, if at all.

Ran pkglint --autofix over the complete pkgsrc-wip. This changed all
