      Slackware users swear by LILO as it's an oldschool bootloader, but legacy GRUB is still pretty decent and much easier to configure than GRUB2.

        Michael is so quick that they couldn't even push it in time before he reported on it...or he has time traveling powers.

          o/

          Been using it exclusively until the debian Jessie release, and some of my installs still have it.
          I don't really need any of the features Grub offers, and the only reason for moving to it is that with Jessie I started to have some weird initrd issues with lilo (when compiling a custom kernel with initrd, still don't know what caused it).
