<elitest unix twit> I really don't see the point to a graphical bootloader, i mean how long do you spend screwing with it? 2 seconds? it seems to me all the hackery required to accomplish it will only serve to make it fragile. lilo works, its stable and reliable, don't mess with it. </elitest unix twit> -- Ethan Benson
