Paul,

If a machine has "hundreds" of directories in /boot, something is definitely 
wrong.

Mine has two directories, and one of them only because I loaded burg on the 
machine to try it out. In addition, there is a total of eight additional files, 
including the Linux kernel itself.

Last I looked, many distros have a "custom install" option that allows you to 
use other boot loaders--even lilo, if you wish.

There is a graphical program called "startupmanager" that allows you to set the 
delay time for booting the default operating system--you can set that to a 
second (or possibly to zero, as I haven't tried that) on your system if you 
only run a single OS.
