> You have the option of installing GRUB or LILO as the boot loader. If
you do not want to install a boot loader, select <B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Do not
install a boot loader</B
>. If you choose not to install a boot
loader, make sure you create a boot diskette or have another way to boot
(such as a third-party boot loader) your system.
</P
><P
> If you choose to install a boot loader, you must also choose which
boot loader to install (GRUB or LILO) and where to
to install the boot loader (the Master Boot Record or
the first sector of the <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/boot</TT
> partition). Install
the boot loader on the MBR if you plan to use it as your boot loader. If
you are using a different boot loader, install LILO or GRUB on the first
sector of the <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/boot/</TT
> partition and configure the
other boot loader to boot the operating system.
</P
><P
> To pass any special parameters to the kernel to be used when the system
boots, enter them in the <B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Kernel parameters</B
> text
field. For example, if you have an IDE CD-ROM Writer, you can tell the
kernel to use the SCSI emulation driver that must be loaded before using
<TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>cdrecord</TT
> by configuring
<TT
CLASS="USERINPUT"
><B
>hdd=ide-scsi</B
></TT
> as a kernel parameter (where
<TT
CLASS="USERINPUT"
><B
>hdd</B
></TT
> is the CD-ROM device).
</P
><P
> If you choose GRUB as the boot loader, you can password protect it by
configuring a GRUB password. Select <B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Use GRUB
password</B
>, and enter a password in the
<B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Password</B
> field. Type the same password in the
<B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Confirm Password</B
> text field. To save the password
as an encrypted password in the file, select <B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Encrypt GRUB
password</B
>. If the encryption option is selected, when the file
is saved, the plain text password that you typed will be encrypted and
written to the kickstart file. Do not type an already encrypted password
and select to encrypt it.
</P
><P
> If you choose LILO as the boot loader, choose whether you want to use
linear mode and whether you want to force the use of lba32 mode.
</P
><P
> If <B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Upgrade an existing installation</B
> is selected on
the <B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Installation Method</B
> page, select
<B
CLASS="GUILABEL"
>Upgrade existing boot loader</B
> to upgrade the
existing boot loader configuration, while preserving the old entries.
