It is still there, but not selectable from GUI. Most likely it is going to be removed in future versions of RH distributions (and therefore from CentOS too). You can still use "bootloader --useLilo" option in ks.cfg file (for automated KickStart installations). Other option is to install LILO RPM (hm, 3rd CD I think) after the GUI installation finishes, delete Grub RPM, create /etc/lilo.conf and run /sbin/lilo. Do note that there is no LILO in x86_64 distribution. Only in i386 distribution. I'm affraid for x86_64 you'll have to use Grub. I haven't attempted installing LILO RPM from i386 distribution onto x86_64.

No one-liners here. But there's that two-liner in the above referenced article ;-) ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
