Bootloader on 10.0


Am I on crack here? Doesn't Madrake 10.0 use grub as it's bootloader? Where the heck is the grub.conf? And why can't I edit the loader line through the gui boot select screen?

~confused and high on Red Hat~

Ah ha... nevermind I see the trickery here for myself! The default install uses lilo. So nevermind.

if you paid attention when installing mandrake you would have seen that you had choice of using grub or lilo, lilo however is the default, although on my 10.1 install it actually installs grub and lilo as in boot i also have a /boot/grub dir.
