I think grub is conspiring against me


I can log on to the internet with linux but not with windoze (hey I do need to play sometimes =P), all the settings are fine and all that but the support folks told me someone else had the same "mack"(or something like that)adress and that I would have to buy a new network card. Now my friends dad who is high on that kind of stuff says that grub propably connects or something and registers that adress to my isp and I therefore cant log on to the internet with windoze =/ So to the question: HOW DO I CHANGE TO LILO (it always worked when I used slack)

If your comfortable with editing the lilo config file, then just backup your current grub config and you should be able to run "yum install lilo". This is also assuming you have yum set up properly. Then take a look at lilo.conf, and edit it to fit your needs, run lilo and reboot. Now AFAIK grub has no networking code, and even if it does the conspiracy theory is quite a bit far fetched. Definately one smart boot loader though
