A nice day,

I have installed dsl 2.0 on my harddrive, grub did not go, therefore i choose lilo, everything went fine, but how can i choose the option toram and lang=de in the lilo bootloader.

Would be nice if you can give me an advice.

DSL is very nice, i will enjoy it

Greetings
Bernhard :cool:

If you want german keyboard-layout you have to select "de-latin1", which has all the german characters. If you select "de" you get german layout without german characters.

The boot option is added the "Append" section of lilo.conf file. Exactly here:

Code Sample

append="hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi apm=power-off nomce noapic toram"

Adding "lang=de-latin1" become:

Code Sample

append="hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi apm=power-off nomce noapic toram lang=de-latin1"

If you did a hard drive install, then youshould edit lilo.conf and add whatever you want. If you did a frugal, lilo.conf does not seem to be editable, so you'll need to change over to grub.
