Description pliszka 2000-02-18 19:44:29 UTC 
Hi!

The problem is as follows:

If I select to not to install lilo then the /etc/lilo.conf
created has wrong map=/boot/map entry. Thus later I cannot simply run lilo
but I have to correct the entry.

The beta installer no longer writes the /etc/lilo.conf at all when the user
chooses to not install lilo.
