I don't know what the plans are for the preferred boot loader, but I
think its worth it just to not have to remember to run LILO every time
you change the config file.

I've got a question too.  I've got a running Debian Woody box under
LILO, how do I go about changing from LILO to GRUB?   I think I
installed GRUB, but it just installed the files without causing LILO to
be replaced.
