+# This goes with mkraid.sh and should be placed in /etc of the harddisc used to create the RAID system.
+#
+# The two harddrives used for the RAID should be partitioned as follows : first partition should be a primary swap partition.
+# The second partition should also be primary and take up the rest of the harddrive. Partitiontype must be fd (RAID autodetect)
+# Questions goes out to Klaus Agnoletti - klaus@xenux.dk

+# | Don't forget to run `lilo' after you make changes to this |
+# | conffile, `/boot/bootmess.txt', or install a new kernel. The |

+# Enable map compaction:
+# Tries to merge read requests for adjacent sectors into a single

+# because it doesn't always work.

+# 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)'.
