No, I have not tried hard. I admit.

I know about info grub. This happily informed me that I have to learn new
way to enumerate my partitions at the very least ... I admit again, I
could learn it - but my question was, why? if lilo does everything I need
currently.
Sorry, do not take it as flame war. Grub may be as good or even better,
but I never needed to even do man lilo - because /etc/lilo.conf was there.
So, I'm really interested if grub has any advantages over lilo.
