LILO didn't support 1024+ cylinder when GRUB was out. It was a temporary
solution for Caldea, I suppose.
At any rate, LILO has had +1024 cylinder support for prolly around 2
years now. I continue to use LILO, and only LILO because it just plain
works. Back when Caldera thrust Grub on the worl
I am beginning to understand now! I'll use LILO on this next try. I
guess GRUB was just another of Caldera's many mistakes .

Yep. They've been crying they are loosing money ca
Thanks. What did you do with the MBR if you didn't let RH 7.3 do it?
The RAID seems to be the culprit so I'll try LILO and see if it works (it
will be a good learning experience). I could install a non-raid drive and
use it but at this point I hate to do that.

Thank you for the comments. I guess since I've only used Caldera till now
that's why I thought LILO was being phased out.
Info pages - yuck! I didn't realize GRUB was a GNU thing - I thought it
was an evolution of LILO - the next step as it were. I'm like you on the
info pages. As far as

As a result of another thread I have a question on LILO and GRUB. I was
under the impression that GRUB was to replace LILO for various reasons
(supposedly better in some way - handles booting over 1024 cylinders, etc.)
but a lot of people are sticking with LILO. Is LILO being phased out?
Wha
All I have is one big RAID - five disks with a hot spare. I put ./boot on
it's own partition but that's on the RAID, too.
I planned to do a reinstall (since it's a new system I can't lose anything)
anyway so I'll try LILO this time. I haven't used GRUB on anything except
a standard system w
