changing kernel boot default in lilo.conf?
This is probably a simple fix, but I want to have linux 2.6.5 be the default booting kernel in lilo at startup. If I don't arrow down to linux 2.6.5 in my boot loader, it will default to 2.4. after 5 seconds.
Here's the part of my lilo.conf which I think changes the boot order:
__________________________________________________
...
...
# append=""
# Boot up Linux by default.
#
default="Linux"
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="Linux"
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off nomce noscsi screen=1280x1024"
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.26
label="Linux(2.4)-1"
initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.4.26
append="ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off nomce noscsi screen=1280x1024"
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.5
label="Linux(2.6)-2"
initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.6.5
append="ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off nomce noscsi screen=1280x1024"
read-only
______________________________________________
I tried changing the line default="Linux"
to default="Linux(2.6)-2"
but that didn't help during boot. I would think that I need to change this line to the 'label' of the image I want, but it didn't work. Do I need to do additional changes in initrd?
Also, once I've succesfully changed the boot order, I'd like to change the timeout to 2 seconds.
Thanks for any help
