lilo: LILO boots Linux from your hard drive. It can also boot other
lilo: operating systems such as Windows and OS X, and can even boot DOS from
lilo: the second hard drive. LILO comes with utilities and documentation
lilo: that make it easier to install, such as 'liloconfig' and 'QuickStart'.
lilo: NOTE: Installing boot loaders is inherently dangerous. Be sure to have
lilo: some means to boot your system from a different media if you install
lilo: LILO on your hard disk.

libnl3: The libnl suite is a collection of libraries providing APIs to 
libnl3: netlink protocol based Linux kernel interfaces. Netlink is a IPC
libnl3: mechanism primarily between the kernel and user space processes.
libnl3: It was designed to be a more flexible successor to ioctl to provide
libnl3: mainly networking related kernel configuration and monitoring
libnl3: interfaces.
