Even without a "problem" it isn't hard to see how someone looking for a system with a smaller codebase would want a replacement for grub if a simpler solution works well for them: 549138 total lines in grub git repo master 62378 total lines in LILO git repo master Anyone interested in continued LILO development should contact the developer as he is currently planning to stop maintenance at the end of the year. If it were the default bootloader in a popular distro, or explicitly targeted long term, there would certainly be a resurgence in interest from the community at large too... _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
