• Bug#265755: when timeout= is after image= in yaboot.conf, it's infinite

    From Syd Bauman@1:229/2 to All on Sat Aug 14 21:30:12 2004

    Package: yaboot
    Version: 1.3.13-2
    Severity: normal

    On a freshly installed Sarge system I found that if the timeout=
    variable is specified after one of the image= variables in
    /etc/yaboot.conf, the value of timeout= is ignored, and yaboot waits
    forever (or at least, longer than I had patience to time -- overnight
    in one case) for the user to specify which kernel image to boot from.
    The delay= variable does not seem to suffer this problem.
