Er det mulig å installere LiLo på en diskett, noe ala "mkrescue", men uten kjerne (tar så lang tid å boote)?

Har tenkt tanken på å kjøre "mkrescue", og deretter editere fila som blir generert, men kanskje det finnes noen lettere måter å gjøre dette på.... (Med eksisterende lilo.conf)

Don't know about lilo, but grub can, and I personally find grub to be a bit more user-friendly,

And it is quite simple. You need to put stage 1 and stage 2 on the floppy. That is all. But you can't copy them as files, you need to write them to the raw floppy.
One way could be
Code:
cat /boot/grub/stage1 > floppy.img
cat /boot/grub/stage2 >> floppy.img
dd if=floppy.img of=/dev/fd0


Anyways, it is all documented in the grub manuals and helps.
So RTFM.
