I have a Jetway machine. I use it to view stuff on the TV in the living room. It used to have Ubuntu MATE 16.04 on it, but this morning I've begun the installation of Slackware 14.2. The last two Slackware installs I did were in UEFI machines, and so did not use LILO. This is an older machine. I'm at the stage of the installation where I tell it to use "simple", "expert", or "skip". My guess is to go with "simple" but before I hit OK I thought I'd ask for input from the other Slackware users.
Dick, I believe the Jetway uses an Atom processor. It's 32-bits and a simple LILO installation will work. When you upgrade everything don't forget the kernel and rebuild the initrd, point /etc/lilo.conf to the proper generic and huge kernel versions, and re-run /sbin/lilo.
