I know I mentioned LILO before, but LILO is really a symptom of the problem here and not the problem itself. The real problem is that this document doesn't really reflect how things are done on most systems; simply excising mentions of LILO doesn't really fix that. Or, for example: > + The kernel image file is usually /vmlinuz, /boot/vmlinuz, /bzImage or > + /boot/bzImage.

I think that kernels in the root are quite scarce anymore, and most of them don't have such simple names. I would love to see all this fixed, but making it look updated without doing the job properly doesn't really help our users much, I think.
