I guess everyone allready knows how i messed up the kernel spell after i took
the section this summer. And feedback was positive.

but:

I didn't touch yet the script that updates the bootloader.
(i did analyse it a bit, but didin't modify it)

it now seems that i cannot ignore that any longer:

http://bugs.sourcemage.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1403
http://bugs.sourcemage.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1719

zero: did you do something about #1403?

all of you:
anyone who could help me with the bootloaders?

i lack knowledge of lilo and grub and bash to fully understand the existing
script - i think i need to know exactely what the script should do to
understand how it works and to find out what i need to change.

i apologize for the lack of time i had in the past weeks - maybe someone can
assist me in my section a bit?

Regardless of i get help or do it on my own: i'd like to start a discussion
about how the lilo.conf or config of other bootloaders shall be modifyed.
shall there be a new entry for every new kernel version?
what should happen when? what do you want? give me suggestions!

Worf
