       liloconfig is an simple program for creating a new lilo.conf file.  After creating the new configuration
       file you must execute '/sbin/lilo'.

       liloconfig use the lilo.example.conf file as template. In the final lilo.conf file you find many useful
       comments for custom changes.

       Please pay attention about error messages if liloconfig cannot find any images (/boot/vmlinuz*) oder
       image symlinks (/vmlinuz, /vmlinu.old).  Then you need to search for images by ourself and make some
       changes in the '/etc/lilo.conf' file. Otherwise no bootloader can be installed with '/sbin/lilo'.

       Lines in the configuration file /etc/lilo.conf:
