If I read the home page correctly, they are not really doing much more |
| 18 |
than bug fixes on the old grub. That was my reading at least. I'm |

dreading that day too. I sort of like my old grub. I started on lilo |
| 20 |
and grub has seriously grown on me. I'll switch to the new grub tho. I |
| 21 |
have NO plans to go back to lilo. None whatsoever ! ! |
