For yet another view on this, Grub2 is pants. I see no good reason toeliminate both lilo and GRUB at the same time. Eliminate lilo or GRUBbut not both, and let the user choose to use Grub2 or the older method.When Grub2 matures some more, move to it, but it's not ready yet totake on the full responsibility of booting all of creation.

MAA
