[Ubuntu] Come si comporta l'installer?

[Pegasus]

Devo riistallare ubuntu su un'altra macchina, ma non ricordo se l'installer sovrascrive di default l'MBR o chiede di istallarlo in una partizione /boot.
Siccome ho il LILO di yoper, non voglio che me lo tocchi.
QUalcuno si ricorda? Perchè ho letto alcune cose che mi hanno fatto venire qualche dubbio.

puoi anche scegliere di instalalre lilo nella partizione root. a me infatti grub dava problemi e tornando al menù delle scelte ho optato per lilo.

Puoi scegliere dove installare,senza problemi l'installer è quello classico
testuale semigrafico della Debian .

Installata ubuntu mantenendo su mbr il lilo di Yoper...


Ciao!

[eraclito]

attento però che è subdolo, io mi sono distratto un attimo e mi ha fregato, senza chiedermi nulla avevo grub a scapito (guardala coincidenza) del lilo di yoper...

[Pegasus]

Altor mi posti la conf del LILO? mi può tornare utile..

Qui ufficio...

Te la posto stasera da casa.

Ciao!

PS tieni conto che ubuntu cerca di installare grub, nel modo che diceva Eraclito. Nel mio caso è successo che grub non si installava e quindi ho messo lilo con relativa facilità.

Eccomi!

Lilo di Ubuntu (molto commentato)

# /etc/lilo.conf - See: `lilo(8)' and `lilo.conf(5)',
# --------------- `install-mbr(8)', `/usr/share/doc/lilo/',
# and `/usr/share/doc/mbr/'.

#

# Specifies the boot device. This is where Lilo installs its boot
# block. It can be either a partition, or the raw device, in which
# case it installs in the MBR, and will overwrite the current MBR.
#
boot=/dev/hda8

# Specifies the device that should be mounted as root. (`/')
#
root=/dev/hda8

# Enable map compaction:
# Tries to merge read requests for adjacent sectors into a single
# read request. This drastically reduces load time and keeps the
# map smaller. Using `compact' is especially recommended when
# booting from a floppy disk. It is disabled here by default
# because it doesn't always work.
#
# compact

# Installs the specified file as the new boot sector
# You have the choice between: text, bmp, and menu
# Look in lilo.conf(5) manpage for details
#
#install=menu

# Specifies the location of the map file
#
map=/boot/map

# You can set a password here, and uncomment the `restricted' lines
# in the image definitions below to make it so that a password must
# be typed to boot anything but a default configuration. If a
# command line is given, other than one specified by an `append'
# statement in `lilo.conf', the password will be required, but a
# standard default boot will not require one.
#
# This will, for instance, prevent anyone with access to the
# console from booting with something like `Linux init=/bin/sh',
# and thus becoming `root' without proper authorization.
#
# Note that if you really need this type of security, you will
# likely also want to use `install-mbr' to reconfigure the MBR
# program, as well as set up your BIOS to disallow booting from
# removable disk or CD-ROM, then put a password on getting into the
# BIOS configuration as well. Please RTFM `install-mbr(8)'.
#
# password=tatercounter2000

# Specifies the number of deciseconds (0.1 seconds) LILO should
# wait before booting the first image.
#
delay=20

# You can put a customized boot message up if you like. If you use
# `prompt', and this computer may need to reboot unattended, you
# must specify a `timeout', or it will sit there forever waiting
# for a keypress. `single-key' goes with the `alias' lines in the
# `image' configurations below. eg: You can press `1' to boot
# `Linux', `2' to boot `LinuxOLD', if you uncomment the `alias'.
#
# message=/boot/bootmess.txt
# prompt
# delay=100
# timeout=100

# Specifies the VGA text mode at boot time. (normal, extended, ask, <mode>)

# Kernel command line options that apply to all installed images go
# here. See: The `boot-prompt-HOWTO' and `kernel-parameters.txt' in
# the Linux kernel `Documentation' directory.
