Al,
No, I didn't try the Emacs upgrade. I don't use emacs. In fact since I've
learned VI and MC and don't really have a need for emacs at all.
As far as LILO taking over for grub if I were going to do something like
this the first thing I would do is remove grub from, I'm assuming it
installed in the MBR the same way LILO does. Boot to a C:\ prompt and
type: fdisk /mbr <ENTER> <ENTER> = hit the enter key
then, boot into linux using your boot disk and install LILO. You can do
that once you've configured it with Linuxconf open a terminal window as
root and type: lilo <ENTER>. That will/should install LILO to the
MBR. AT least that's how it was done in RedHat. I can't think that it
would be too much different for Mandrake.
