Hello!
Hi ALL,
I want to kill the GRUB which have in my machine and I want to install LILO. I just have Lilo package installed in my system, but I don't know how to do to substitute the GRUB by LiLo.
thanks...
It's simple: 0. Become root 1. Edit your /etc/lilo.conf according your needs 3. Run lilo That's all. But I don't see any kind of reasons why to do this. Best reagrds, Andrew.

I've known this for some time, but what I don't know is how to go in the other direction. If my machine is using lilo, how would I configure it to use grub? As for why one would choose lilo over grub, well I for one know how to configure my lilo.conf file, but I know nothing about configuring grub. -- John LeMay KC2KTH Senior Enterprise Consultant NJMC | http://www.njmc.com | Phone 732-557-4848 Specializing in Microsoft and Unix based solutions

As for why one would choose lilo over grub, well I for one know how to configure my lilo.conf file, but I know nothing about configuring grub. AFAIK, SuSE creates (and modifies?) both lilo.conf and grub's menu.lst (Too lazy to check). So switching is simple - run lilo to switch to lilo or grub-install to switch to grub. In any case, if you want to switch your boot manager, you know what and why are you doing and how to do this.
Best regards, Andrew.
Thanks Andrew. What you saied is the most expression of truth. Anyone needs to question why you go to change the GRUB over LiLO or vice-versa. --- Andrew Kirilenko <icedank@gmx.net> escreveu: > Hello!

I heard there were problems with GRUB and certain NVidia mainboards. I don't know for sure though. Op woensdag 2 april 2003 20:32, schreef Rodrigo Nascimento:

There are certainly reasons for using lilo over grub, the big one that affected me was grub cannot boot if the mbr is on a raid partition See http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/fhassel_grub_lilo.html & http://www.robsell.com/docs/grub2lilo.html for more info on changing Rob -----Original Message----- From: Z_God [mailto:zeldario@wanadoo.nl] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2003 1:45 PM To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] Changing for LILO I heard there were problems with GRUB and certain NVidia mainboards.

Precisely so - the A7N266-VM, an integrated board that give a very good little games/office PC for the price, cannot be used with GRUB. Kevin
