I would second this. Ask the user if they wish to use GRUB as the default boot loader. Add some logic to make sure LILO or some other boot loader isn't being used (if it is, deactivate it) and set up GRUB to work right. If the user wishes to use GRUB, or LILO to build floppies, or as a second boot loader and have a OS menu, or whatever, they can say "no" to making GRUB the default boot loader. Frankly, with the proper hooks set up (see my /etc/kernel-img.conf sent earlier), GRUB is 100% painless for a newbie, yet has the power an expert demands.
