The whole point is to make the system secure. So let's look at lilo's security: Password stored as plaintext in world-readable config file. And it gets worse: Password stored in actual bootsector as... not even documented. Even the many web pages that talk about lilo don't even bother documenting this. So the password support in lilo is at best as good as if it wasn't there. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkuZjS8ACgkQ+VSRxYk440+n8gCeMXVkSPp93Kl0zfybB1JeBUE7 0QYAn1LSzI/FDStMS1YQGRc8mzVTRXm8 =T2Vb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
