Now that we have the skeleton of our embedded_rootfs we will install the boot loader, we choose to use lilo because it's more fast and minimal respect to grub. At this step we will only compile and install the lilo binary into the embedded_rootfs. The installation of the loader into the embedded's mbr will be described ahead in this document. After installing the binary we will tune the /etc/lilo.conf configuration file:
# emerge lilo # ROOT=/embedded_rootfs emerge -K lilo |
