The question remains unanswered: WHY was LILO removed?
We/you/they removed *something that works*.
What took its place does not work everywhere LILO does... a functionality loss.
I hear folks saying "that loss is corrected in a future release"
That's saying GRUB is *almost* ready to replace LILO, which has been removed prematurely.
The question was "Hey, REDHAT, *WHY*?"

Thanks for the tip. I was not aware of making it visible in that way.
So at the prompt you type:
"boot: lilo" ?
boot: linux lilo

You seem to have missed the post where I highlighted the fact that it has not been removed.
The question was "Hey, REDHAT, *WHY*?"
you also seem to have the wrong forum for that question, please contact redhat at one of the following

It's not only Red Hat. Suse uses it since 9.0 as the default as well.
