Major problem with GRUB based systems (in my opinion) is GRUB can easily get lost in case sudden power failures... etc as happened in one of my friends' case and from that perspective LILO written to MBR is better.
Now somebody may say that you can write GRUB to MBR too... but i like LILO since it worked for me all the times.. OPENSUSE does not allow LILO during initial installation which is a negative point for OS-Live from my perspective. >From simplicity point of view i like Kubuntu's packages and update mechnism but YaST is better than what is offered by Kubuntu otherwise... and Mandriva takes the bold lead into eye-kandy workshop from some perspective + some other things i feel, PuppyLinux 's better than all above if it could have all uptodate packages :-) My RHCE friend who has seen all of these said all of these... OpenSUSE, Mandriva and Kubuntu are easier for new user perspective than RedHat ... ( just so they get a mention too :-) -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune Linux Users' Gnu Mitra List: (plug-mail@plug.org.in) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to plug-mail-requ...@plug.org.in for mailing instructions. _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
