I've always used loadlin, so I don't know much about lilo. Grub
is easy to configure and install, and has the capability to make a
partition bootable (active in MS terms), hide/unhide partitions, and
map drives to other drives. This is very helpful if you want to boot
two different that OSes allow only one active partition and insist on
being on the first disk. I have DOS 6.22 on /dev/hda1 and WIIN95 on
/dev/hdb1, and can boot either. I don't think lilo permits that.
