GRUB is way more flexible than LILO, can even have spaces in the titles 
of your stanza's! WOW, lol, Don't need to reinstall it to change it, 
etc., unlike LILO, Doesnt have near the trouble that I used to have with 
SCSI on LILO. Anyway, didn't want to start a flame but I started using 
GRUB because RH and now Fedora seemed to prefer it, much like GNOME and 
I thought they must see something good in there choices and since he is 
using Fedora, I gave what seemed like logical advise, IMHO.
