I've got an elilo (EFI LILO) config file that includes spaces in the label - like that:
image=/EFI/gentoo/boot/kernel-genkernel-ia64-3.1.6-gentoo
label="Gentoo IA64 3.1.6"
append="real_root=/dev/sda2"
initrd=/EFI/gentoo/boot/initramfs-genkernel-ia64-3.1.6-gentoo
read-only
How can I select this label from ELILO's command line - the usual suspects:
Gentoo IA64 3.1.6
"Gentoo IA64 3.1.6"
'Gentoo IA64 3.1.6'
Gentoo\ IA64\ 3.1.6
all fail with the
Kernel file not found Gentoo/"Gentoo/'Gentoo/Gentoo\
" kind of error.
Surely there must be a way to use a 'space' without making it a parameter delimeter?
