I am not installing Ubuntu - it's already installed on hda3. I say again I want to install another Linux on hda3 which uses Lilo...not Grub. I'm asking whether Lilo will screw up Grub. I don't know whether the install will give me the option to skip installing Lilo. If it does there is no problem...but if it doesn't will there be a problem. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkj6CisACgkQnQV1aTcQlJsSPgCePxIHaeaKyPd2fRaO1SL+qNVy BSsAn3Vl50xDvjFqlY1tJEbapEPxB3mG =F+Ma -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
