I tried setting up Grub. I think there might be a problem with a
post-lilo grub install...mine never seemed to work, no matter what I
tried. New kernels wouldn't load after reboot, and I once got the
dreaded LI after POST.
YMMV, of course, but Rob speaks truly - go with whatever is the default
bootloader your Distribution of Choice(tm) installs. :)
