+The boot loader on DECstations is <command>DELO</command>.
+It has to be installed on the same hard disk as the kernel (this is done
+automatically by the installer). DELO supports different configurations
+which are set up in <filename>/etc/delo.conf</filename>. Each
+configuration has a unique name,
+the default setup as created by the installer is <quote>linux</quote>.
+After DELO has been installed, the system can be booted from hard disk
+by entering
+
+<informalexample><screen>
+<userinput>boot <replaceable>#</replaceable>/rz<replaceable>id</replaceable> <replaceable>partnr</replaceable>/<replaceable>name</replaceable></userinput>
+</screen></informalexample>
