NAME

       zum - free disk space by making holes in files

SYNOPSIS

       zum [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       zum reads a files list on the command line and attempts to perforate these files.  Perforation means, that series of `0' bytes are replaced
       by lseek(2)s, thus giving the file system a chance of not allocating real disk space for those bytes.

EXAMPLE

	      find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 zum

       If you zum under /boot, where your kernel image lives, your system will become unbootable unless you run lilo again.

NAME

       lilo-uuid-diskid - convert boot / root options to diskid and uuid in lilo.conf.

SYNOPSIS

       lilo-uuid-diskid [-h] [-v] [lilo.conf]

DESCRIPTION

       This script looks for the boot block device or boot partition and create the right diskid or uuid as boot option. Then it looks for all
       root partitions and create the right uuids as root options.

       These conversions are necessary for use with newer kernel (>= 2.6.26) if it use the libata module for parallel and serial ATA interfaces of
       block devices (i. e. hard disks with IDE or SATA interface, usbsticks).

OPTIONS

       -h  Print a brief help.

       -v  Print verbose messages.

EXAMPLES

       Lines in the configuration file /etc/lilo.conf:

	 #boot = /dev/sda
	 boot = /dev/disk/by-id/ata-SAMSUNG_SV1604N_S01FJ10X999999

	 #root = /dev/sda1
	 root = "UUID=/dev/disk/by-uuid/18843936-00f9-4df0-a373-000d05a5dd44"
