well u have to set up your /etc/lilo.conf(use the contents of ure /etc/lilo.conf.anaconda to start)

im sure there are numerous readme's on how to set it up...it shud more or less look like /etc/grub.conf

after ure done setting it up, u have to type

# lilo

this writes lilo to ure MBR, and u shud see the lilo screen again


if u need to go back to GRUB, then type

grub-install /dev/hda(or whatever ure HDD is )

if you did not install lilo yet you can do it like this


up2date lilo

Then you can configure it with your lilo.conf file and install it to the mbr by running lilo
