Subject: dbootstrap: wrong choice for partition for LILO bootsector

Package: boot-floppies
Version: N/A; potato RC3
Severity: normal

I did an install from my RC3 floppies this week - still do not have r1 CDs,
waiting for r2 to be there :} - and went into the following problem.  It was
not a blocking problem for me, but I guess it may be to others.

Partionning:
/dev/hda unused (but has old OS and std M$ mbr)
/dev/hdc1 /boot
/dev/hdc2 swap
/dev/hdc3 /
/dev/hdc4 /local

As answers to dbootstrap, as 1st partition to mke2fs I selected hdc3,
mounted it as root, and then mke2fs'd the others.

When it came to LILO setup, I only had 2 choices for LILO location:

hda MBR - well, OK, but I would have prefered hdc MBR, to keep the old
        one.  Any reason why it's not there ?  My bios does support booting
        from ide1 !  I tested it successfully !

hdc1    - er... yes.  Bad guess.  I suspect this can be due to a wrong
        assumption like "/ is the first ext2", but I suspect many people
        still put /boot first !  Strange that it did not picked up hdc3
        here.

Thank you very much for your bug report.  We believe the issue you
reported is solved as of boot-floppies 2.3.1.  That is the woody
version of boot-floppies, which is available in the archive, or, some
SPARC and i386, at
<URL:http://people.debian.org/~aph/debian/dists/woody/main/>.

If you feel your bug is still outstanding, please let us know or
reopen your bug -- see <http://www.debian.org/Bugs/> for instructions
how to do that.

We are not longer working on Potato boot-floppies, except for critical
issues.  If you feel that your bug hasn't been fixed as of
boot-floppies 2.2.22 (the latest Potato version), then you we need to
reopen your bug and put the 'potato' tag on it.  Please be sparing --
the more we are distracted with Potato issues, the less effort we are
able to put into Woody boot-floppies.

Again, thanks for your report.  Bug reports are a significant
contribution to Debian. We apologize that it probably took so long to
fix the issue you reported.
