Guys,

How do I know which bootloader I am using (lilo/grub)?


When you boot up grub has a splash screen with Grub <version> on top
L/H/S


I can use kickstart, but do not know what to do with ks.cfg once i save
the
configuration.


Save it to a boot disk in the root directory. Then type ks=floppy when
you boot the disk.


The problem is I am trying to use "hiddenmenu" option in GRUB. But no
matter
how I change the /boot/grub/grub.conf or /boot/grub/menu/1st or
/etc/lilo/lilo.conf, it does not reflect in booting. This include
changing
the "label" in these files to "XXX" but the menu in booting still
showing me
"DOS" & "LINUX"

I suspect your using lilo here. If so, you have to type lilo in the
shell to write to the MBR (master boot record) once you have made
changed to lilo.conf.


Also, is their a way to totally disable menu driven booting. Thus when i
boot, I can press TAB and type what i want to boot in instead of it
showing
me a menu of options??

I can't understand why you would want to do this? If you have a problem
booting the bootloader is a great place to start your system in single
or rescue mode so why would you want to get rid of it?





I know lot of questions but I am confused. Thanks a lot in advance for
any
help!!
