It seems to me that since lilo is still needed for certian setups (mostly hardware raid IIRC), we should default to grub, and try to detect those setups and use lilo. Yes, I think grub should be default though. > > Here's the only significant problem I had: My cdrom was not properly > > set up to be used in base-config.

It does seem likely that the rename has something to do with this though. I think this problem should only effect systems with scsi disks and an ide cdrom. If the disk is also ide, then the initrd will load the necessary ide modules (dunno if it loads ide-cd though). -- see shy jo
