If the user writes the FILO configuration file.

It will be possible that FILO loads the configuration file from
distribution CD and boot from the CD almost automatically,
and the distribution installer creates the FILO configuration file
on the hard disk, so the machine will boot from hard disk next time.
(the default location of the config file can be saved in CMOS)
So the LinuxBIOS pre-installed workstation will be possible.
