We (Red Hat) should try to fix this before next release. which version of up2date is this occuring with? This is supported in the latest versions of the client. With current code, these options will work correctly. If you want, you could add an attactment of your lilo.conf, and I can add it to the the test suite (there are alreadys lilo.conf's that include bios drive remapping already though...). But more test cases never hurt ;-> Hello...
Tried again with latest batch of updates, this is what I got:
[root@wednesday root]# up2date
fatal error: unable to find a suitable template
/boot/initrd-2.4.7-6smp.img already exists.
fatal error: unable to find a suitable template

by up2date are used in the default lilo.conf. This file will not be modified.
The options include:
['disk=/dev/sda', 'bios=0x80', 'disk=/dev/hda', 'bios=0x81']

The lilo stuff should actually, really, work in the next version. All the logic for handling it was there, but I was still blowing up in the case where I got this setup, despite being able to handle it. Doh. the arch bug is a seperate issue, which is also resolved in the latest versions of the clients. Tested with: disk = /dev/hda bios = 0x81 |
