# palo.conf -- default arguments for palo
#
# See /usr/share/doc/palo/README.html and run 'palo --help' for
# more information
# The following arguments are set up for booting from /dev/sda3, specifically
# mounting partition 3 as root, and using /boot/vmlinux as both the
# recovery kernel, and the default dynamically-booted kernel.
# --recoverykernel=/boot/vmlinux
# --init-partitioned=/dev/sda
# --commandline=3/boot/vmlinux HOME=/ TERM=linux root=/dev/sda3
#
#Usage: palo [options]
# (if an option is repeated, the last instance of it takes precedence)
# -?, --help Print this information
# -c, --commandline=default kernel command line
# Maximum 1023 characters.
# -k, --recoverykernel=path to recovery kernel (perhaps /boot/vmlinux)
# -b, --bootloader=path to boot loader
Defaults to /usr/share/palo/iplboot -- you usually don't
need to use -b or --bootloader
# -r, --ramdisk=path to initial ramdisk image
# -I, --init-partitioned=partitioned device or file
# Initialize a pre-partitioned device, usually a hard disk.
# The partition table is not modified. Requires only -c and -b
# though -k is customary and prudent.
# -U, --update-partitioned=partitioned device or file
# Update a pre-partitioned device, usually a hard disk.
# The partition table is not modified. Usually used to
# modify the default kernel command line (-c).
# -s, --init-tape=file
# Initialize an unpartitioned file which can be copied to
# tape, disk, or used as a bootp image. Requires -c, -b, -k.
# -C, --init-cdrom=iso-image-file
# Convert an ISO image already containing a kernel, boot loader,
# and optionally a ramdisk, into a PA-RISC bootable image.
# Requires -c, -b, -k, and optionally -r. The files named on
# the palo command line must have EXACTLY the same contents as
# those already in the ISO image.
# -f, --configfile=path to config file
# Each line in the named configuration file is added
# as a separate argument to the beginning of the palo
# command line arguments (thus command-line options
# override config file options).
#
# Short or long options can be used with long options
# peferred for readability in the configuration file.
# WARNING: No quotations or other shell syntax is understood,
# so use
# --commandline=a b c
# not
# --commandline='a b c'.
# The short-option config file form of the above is:
# -c
# a b c
#
# Blank lines and lines beginning with # are ignored.
# Whitespace at the beginning and ends of lines is discarded.
#
# When -f is not specified, palo tries /etc/palo.conf. Use
# --configfile=/dev/null to avoid configuration files or
# warnings when /etc/palo.conf is missing.
#
#'palo' with no arguments whatsoever is equivalent to 'palo -f /etc/palo.conf'.
#
#When more than one of -I, -U, -s and -C are used, only the
#last one is effective.
#The output file you requested does not exist. If you are trying
#to create a file appropriate for booting from sequential media
#such as a tape or bootp, please add the -s option.
