15 I'm using a software RAID setup here at home, see my lilo.conf's common
16 section:

18 boot=/dev/md0
19 raid-extra-boot = mbr
20 map=/boot/map
21 install=/boot/boot-bmp.b
22 bitmap=/boot/lilo/gallery/boot.bmp
23 bmp-table=227p,233p,1,7
24 bmp-colors=13,0,,11,0,13
25 bmp-timer=76,30,11,0
26 default= 2615r5 # 2615r4 # 2615r2 #2615r1 #2615 #2614r6 #2612r9
27 keytable=/boot/it-latin1.klt
