Well, yeah. You'll need to install grub.
One of the cool things about grub is that only the very small 1st stage
is
loaded into the mbr. The second stage is loaded from /boot and the whole
process is controlled by the menu.lst profile at bootup... its dynamic too...
so that it can be changed on the fly (grub commands) at bootup and it can be
changed with an editor while the machine is running.... no need to reload the
mbr every time a change is made (as in lilo).
Well, we missunderstood your situation. I thought you were booting with
grub
and experiencing difficulty.... I did not realize that you were booting from
lilo. <sorry>
Good night... I've had enough for one day.
