How to install elilo
by Wed from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6J60Y)
This is really a continuation of a previous problem. When booting into a freshly installed 15.0 system, basically nothing works.
It turns out that the updated kernel from a previous install gets booted to a system that works on the older installer, so a mismatch.
cfdisk tells me that I have a boot partition with an EFI-type system.
Code:/dev/nvme0n1p1 150M EFI /boot
/dev/nvme0n1p2 10G Linux swap
/dev/nvme0n1p3 100G Linux /
/dev/nvme0n1p4 821G Linux /homeThe install went through ok but never showed me the boot partition to create, format or modify. It also gave me no other options but to install or not install lilo. I need elilo.
The boot process seem to find the boot partition just fine, and boots the wrong kernel.
I believe I need to overwrite the previous files on the boot partition with relevant information to the current install.
How can I provoke the install of elilo after the completed installation?
lilo says you can run liloconfig afterwards (I haven't tried). eliloconfig however doesn't do anything at all.
