elilo? What's this?

["Kevin Ross" <kross@mmetrics.com>]

I just did an aptitude update and upgrade today on my Etch system, and
after a few minutes, I get a prompt asking me if I want to automatically
run elilo.  Now, the description for elilo is:

Description: Bootloader for systems using EFI-based firmware
 This is the Linux bootloader for systems using the Intel EFI firmware
 specification.  This includes all ia64 systems, and some ia32 systems.


I never told it to install elilo.  I don't know if I have EFI-based
firmware.  WTF?

My current bootloader is lilo, since grub doesn't play nicely with XFS.

I also don't recall having installed gnu-efi.  BTW, I do NOT have an
ia64 system.  It's a Pentium 4 2.8 GHz.

Thanks!
