Let me just add that LILO is - also - in the upcoming objectives for the
202 exam (objective 213.1). So it is possible to remove LILO from the
LPIC-1 objectives without removing LILO from the LPI curriculum.

And the arguments I see so far in favor of LILO are based on situations
which would require the skills of a more advanced Linux administrator.

OTOH, I suspect that the first answer many admins would have w/r/t the
GRUB boot problems described would be a LiveCD/DVD distro like Knoppix. 

Thanks,
Mike
