The question was "WHY", the answer seems to be "because 'they' didn't like lilo"

1: Inadequate arch support in LILO 2: RAID1 boot problems with GRUB not deemed sufficiently important to leave in LILO until said problem is resolved.

It is silly to speculate why they did it, especially on this list ... if you want to really know the answer to the question, ask on the RHEL list. I'm sure they would tell you.

For ServerCD 4.3: 1: Please support i586 in the install. Method: if arch is i686, install i686; if it's i386->i586, install i386.

There is no i386 kernel in RHEL-4 or CentOS-4

we may do an i586 and i686 kernel for the server CD.
