There has been code in pygrub to support the LILO configuration file syntax for as long as I can remember. However in all that time I've never known of anyone using it... Draw your own conclusions ;-) > AFAIR is still available on expert mode. An expert doing a Xen install would be well recommended not to choose the LILO option IMHO. Remember that the real LILO/grub/grub2 is never actually involved with a Xen pygrub domain, only the configuration file syntax matters, so the actual relative benefits of the various bootloaders are somewhat moot. (e.g. in particular I think that pygrub does not read the blocklists which LILO installs, it directly reads the configuration file in /etc/... and finds the kernel in the filesystem itself) Ian. -- Ian Campbell Anyone who says he can see through women is missing a lot. -- Groucho Marx
