begin David A. Bandel's quote: | LILO: handles 1024+ cylinders just fine and is being upgraded | regularly by the lilo folks (only being phased out by Caldera | AFAICT). supports any OS. you can boot into a different image | temporarily ( -R option). for me, the best for remote | administration, since it tells you if it can find the image (i.e., | did I do something stupid like fat-finger a key -- I'm good at | that); disadvantages is that you have to remember to run lilo when | you install a new kernel image (never been a problem for me, just | automatic anymore). should write it to the MBR or you could have | trouble one day.
suse is going to it, too, which means unitedlinux will grub. perhaps most annoying is that the suse installer in 8.x doesn't offer a choice at install time, so it needs to be fiddled with afterwards, which is a scarcely well-documented procedure. -- dep http://www.linuxandmain.com -- outside the box, barely within the envelope, and no animated paperclip anywhere. _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
