That's cool, and up until a few weeks ago, that's what I would have been |
| 7 |
asking about. <g> |

However, with my recent switch to a RAID layout, I decided I might as well |
| 10 |
learn and try grub, while I was at it. Now, having invested the |
| 11 |
time to learn grub and gotten an appreciation for it's boot-time |
| 12 |
flexibility, I don't want to go back to LILO! I'm afraid I've become |
| 13 |
a GRUB addict! =8^\ |

I /like/ being able to upgrade my kernel, and not have to rerun grub as I |
| 16 |
would lilo. I /like/ being able to browse the system from the grub |
| 17 |
interface. I /like/ having a dynamic if limited grub command prompt, |
| 18 |
complete with (limited) online help! =8^) |

Still, very good to know. Thanks! |
