Hi Michael Browsing the mlist archive, I know you are a strong believer of lilo, and don't like Grub. I can totally understand that.
I remember I gave up several attempts trying to switch from lilo to grub -- to me it was the grub's unintuitive syntax. But once I learned it and understand the beauty of grub I never use lilo again. Hope you find the same way too. If you'd like to give it a try, I'd be glad to be of any help. All that get me started was a very good tutorial article... Though it might be hopeless, let me try to show you that grub might be helpful (one more time).

But thanks to grub's interactive debug capability, the problem was solved within seconds. Had I was using lilo, it'd take me several boots to solve the problem. Second, from the author of "Poor man's install, grub and ntfs" : "...boot using grub instead of isolinux (can be used for repairs/diagnostics). morphix and kanotix are both using a cute graphic grub menu, which gives easy access to various knoppix cheatcodes, documentation etc. " He's done that to knoppix. http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/User:Ml#grub_gfx_boot just my 2c.
