Definitely. |

In any case, I would like to add that one must choose lilo or grub depending on lots of different |
| 16 |
aspects. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
For example, I have an ASUS a7n8x-e deluxe mobo at home, with two sata drives and one ide hdd. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
The boot options on the BIOS do not allow me to specify from WHICH sata drive I want to boot. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
So, grub sometimes had the ugly "timestamp" error (if my memory is not failing here). |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
I had to go back to lilo to avoid the problem. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
And I like both! :P |
