 It's not all there yet. I tried to use if for some unsual stuff, and all
I got was "grub hard disk error"; at least lilo will print "L" or
something useful.

 My desktop also has grub on it, and it never boots. Just sits there, and
I've to type

 kernel=/vmlinuz
 boot

 every time I boot the box. No idea why. No errors etc.
