No, it does not: Code Listing 3: grub.conf for non-genkernel users # Which listing to boot as default. 0 is the first, 1 the second etc. default 0 # How many seconds to wait before the default listing is booted. timeout 30 # Nice, fat splash-image to spice things up :) # Comment out if you don't have a graphics card installed splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.11-r3 # Partition where the kernel image (or operating system) is located root (hd0,0) kernel /kernel-2.6.11-gentoo-r3 root=/dev/hda3 # The next four lines are only if you dualboot with a Windows system. # In this case, Windows is hosted on /dev/hda6. title=Windows XP rootnoverify (hd0,5) makeactive chainloader +1 Code Listing 4: grub.conf for genkernel users default 0 timeout 30 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.11-r3 root (hd0,0) kernel /kernel-2.6.11-gentoo-r3 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/hda3 udev initrd /initrd-2.6.11-gentoo-r3 # Only in case you want to dual-boot title=Windows XP root (hd0,5) makeactive chainloader +1 Perhaps you're thinking of the LiLO config: Code Listing 11: Example /etc/lilo.conf boot=/dev/hda # Install LILO in the MBR prompt # Give the user the chance to select another section timeout=50 # Wait 5 (five) seconds before booting the default section default=gentoo # When the timeout has passed, boot the "gentoo" section # For non-genkernel users image=/boot/kernel-2.6.11-gentoo-r3 label=gentoo # Name we give to this section read-only # Start with a read-only root.
