Do you want a technically accurate answer? Or are you willing to settle for an answer someone just pulled out of their ass?
I trust my point is obvious, even to you.

Ooooo. Chastised by a sock puppet. I'm crushed.

Re: LILO: BIOS Data Check. What does it mean?
I see you've been spamming multiple forums with this inane question, and that one of the replies you received over at the Ubuntu forums was this: Personally, I think you would have more luck contacting the developers or Debian maintainers, or at least posting in a mailing list related to LILO.

Re: Newer version of Kodi
For the benefit of others stumbling on this thread someday...
Unless someone is prepared to provide a CVE, I'm not prepared to believe that the problem is in Kodi itself. Everything I've seen says that It's the media players, not the platform itself, that are vulnerable.

I confess that I'd not heard of ecosia before.
Just tried their image search feature. Better than Google's, and WAY better than Startpage.

For the sed part: A . is a wildcard that matches any character, you need to escape it with a \ to match an actual . There's one method. Single quotes also work for creating a file name with spaces in Debian: touch 'a dotted filename' There's another. Wow, for something that "can't be done,&quo...
