The commands that show up in "qlist grub" can be run from a standard shell. The GRUB interactive shell is different, with its own set of commands. You really need to read the online manual or the info pages again. The man pages explain the individual commands, but only the full manual shows how it all fits together. Why are you looking to switch from Lilo to GRUB now? If Lilo works, stick with it. If it is because you have EFI hardware, I'd skip GRUB and go straight to Gummiboot or systemd-boot. -- Neil Bothwick Weird enough for government work.
