and on a server you can't get a hand on or with no screen, the Grub boot editor is not that usefull...
But it does no harm. So actually the point is irrelevant, and if you need console access for some reason, GRUB's runtime flexibility helps. 2009/12/9 Per Jessen <per@computer.org>:

I don't know anything about grub, but the chance of me restoring a /boot directory and successfully booting the system with lilo is 100%.
Out of those who have used both, not many go back to lilo(8). Remember there's some gotcha's concerning reiserfs with lilo to, have to avoid tail packing. So it's not really a solution to perverse ppl deciding to have /boot on reiserfs. IIRC that was one of the reasons, GRUB replaced lilo in the distro for most configurations in first place. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
