Linux Loader
({LILO}) A versatile {bootloader} for
{Linux}, which does not depend on specific {filesystem} and
can {boot} an {operating system}, specifically {kernel image},
from {floppy disks} and {hard disks}. LILO can even be used as
the {master boot record}.
At the system boot, only the {BIOS} {Drivers} are available
for LILO to access hard disks.For this reason,in very old
BIOSes, the accessible area is limited to the cylinders 0 to
1023 of the first two hard disks.For later BIOSes,LILO can use
32-bit {logical block addressing} to acccess the entire range
allowed by the BIOS.
{Grub} is another bootloader widely used in Linux systems.

Hi Denis,
How are you doing? Hope you are doing well.
That was the LILO entry for FOLDOC.
And I am ready to take the next.
Kudos and keep your good work going.
Thanks!

On Friday I called home and Ashwini picked up the phone and immediately
I recognized the good mood and she said Vaishnavi got placed at
Futuresoft.
Thats very nice of her and Congratulations Vaish.
Cheers!
btw, her home page is <a

Linux Loader (or Lilo)
I have found a new definition.

LILO - The Linux Loader
>From the LILO README:
LILO is a versatile boot loader for Linux. It does not depend on a
specific file system, can boot Linux kernel images from floppy disks
and hard disks, and can even boot other operating systems. One of up
to sixteen differernt images can be selected at boot time. Various
parameters, such as the root device, can be set indepenantly for each
kernel. LILO can even be used as the master boot record.

When I finish my work quickly, I am usually finding that I get more
interest and I devote my self more to the work.
I should take a hint here.

Josepshson Junction
A type of {electronic} {circuit} capable of
switching at very high speeds when operated at temperatures
approaching {absolute zero}.Its low power dissipation factor makes it
useful in {high density computer circuits}.

Hi Denis,
Thanks again for providing me the oppurtunity to edit
FOLDOC. I have edited the Josephson Junction entry submitted to me on
May 28,2004.If you have any comments on it,kindly let me know.
I am ready to take up the next entry and contribute to FOLDOC.
Warm Regards,
Senthil

Put your brain in gear before starting your mouth in motion.

Submitted my next FOLDOC entry Today to Denis Howe.
Thanks again to FOLDOC.
