[root@localhost angus]# locate lilo.conf
/home/angus/tmp/lilo.conf
/etc/lilo.conf
/usr/share/man/man5/lilo.conf.5.bz2
-----------------------------------------------------------
(The lilo.conf in ~/tmp is a copy that I have just created for reference).

I have one hd on my comp and I have a dual boot w/WinME.
I am not experiencing any obvious booting probs, just an inability to choose the lilo 
text menu, which I have had since installing 9.0 about 2 months ago, and suddenly 
lost. Now I am presented w/the lilo graphical menu at bootup, regardless of my changes 
in MCC or to lilo.conf manually.
