So I'm not concerned about it's maintenance status.  As long as there are
PCs with a BIOS, or a CSM, lilo will remain usable.  If the BIOS/CSM goes,
lilo goes with it.  lilo can't function without a BIOS/CSM.  But for UEFI-only
systems, there's elilo as a grub alternative.


AFAICS, elilo is not available any more in stretch and sid.
