LILO out, GRUB in.


Hello all.

The subject says it all. I don't wish to start a debate like this thread. Although I have had lilo on various system, I have become comfortable with GRUB editing.

I'm running Slackware 8.1s' auto LILO 22.2 install. It is installed to the mbr and points to my windows OS also.

Can I just install grub to the MBR then kill off the LILO folders?
Basically what is the precedure. I am being as cautious as possible.=)
