Description Rick Beldin 2008-06-16 17:18:16 UTC
Description of problem:  On ia64, sosreport does not capture the elilo.conf,
often a necessary piece of information in troubleshooting customer systems. 

In sosreport;s output in sosreport/sos_commands/bootloader we have two 
files: 

lilo_-q  

ls_-laR_.boot

lilo_-q is obviously incorrect on ia64: 
 /bin/sh: /sbin/lilo: No such file or directory

The ls_-laR.boot is more useful, but does not contain the *contents* of the
elilo.conf.   Seems like a 'find' command coupled with a cat could fix this. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

sos-1.7-9.2.el5

How reproducible:

Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run sosreport
2. look for elilo.conf information
3. fail to find it ;-) 
  
Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:

Something similar could be done for grub on other platforms.
