When I find myself in that situation, I want something more than "could |

possibly work" :( |

Anyway, I rarely edit the command line. I forgot to re-run lilo far more |

often, so it's GRUB for me. |

Those of you that only use x86 based system don't know how lucky you are |

something a hundred times better than yaboot, the PPC bootloader :( |
