Discussion: Slackware and GRUB
I've heard and read several times things from Linux gurus more or less stating that GRUB is far superior to LILO as a boot manager. That it is both more flexible as a boot loader and a powerful tool for recovering systems that have messed up MBRs, lost root passwords, etc.
My questions are: i) if the above is true, why doesn't Slackware employ GRUB instead of LILO?; ii) did anyone install GRUB on Slackware and if so how do you like it and are there any issues?
thanks.
