The only requirement is that you put boot/second.b from SILO distribution into -/boot in the tree and edit the appropriate /etc/silo.conf in the tree. The +/boot in the tree and edit the appropriate /boot/silo.conf in the tree. The isofs.b boot block does not need to be in the CD tree. This is VERY important. The isofs.b boot block is hard wired to look for -second.b in /boot on the iso9660 image. Since isofs.b does not modify -second.b, then second.b will look in it's default location for silo.conf -(usually /etc/silo.conf). +second.b in /boot on the iso9660 image. The silo.conf has to be located in +/boot aswell, since isofs.b will tell second.b that is the location. Note, you also need to make sure that you enable RockRidge extensions so that normal path lookups work. This has always been true for SILO's usage |
