Adam,
 
For the beta's plus rc1 i used expert mode for install.  I was then able to choose which boot loader, Grub LILO with Graphics, LILO with regular menu, or other.
 
Hopefully this will work for you too.

Subject: [newbie] ok, so mandrake 8.0 is out, need info

The betas of 8.0 have been using lilo as a bootloader... but one of the things I liked about LM 7.2 was that it used grub as it's primary boot loader and all I had to do was tell it where my other os was and it loaded neccesary files with a chainloading system.  Lilo cannot do this.  So did they switch to grub for the full release?
 
Also, it looks like they completely re-vamped bootdrake making it completely worthless.  Is there anyway that I can install GRUB from the getgo during the install process and use the same easy-to-use front-end that the 7.2 install had?...  for me it was such an easy way to dual boot rather than copying all of these image output files and what not.
 
Any help is greatly appreciated.
