If you mean how well they (e.g., grub and ext2) work together, any
combination of these should work harmoniously. If you have a seperate
/boot partition though, it will need to be ~64 mb to use Ext/3. (This
extra space is taken up by the journal file.)
If, on the other hand, you mean how are they individually, then I would
first say that the choice between grub & lilo is mostly arbitrary. On a
modern computer, either should work well; lilo has easier configuration
syntax, but grub is much more advanced. As far as the filesystems are
concerned, nowadays it is very clear-cut. As Ext/3 has matured a great
deal since it was released, my opinion is that it is entirely superior
to Ext/2 at least. The journalling capabilities greatly increase speed
and reliability in many cases. I personally use SGI's XFS, but Ext/3 is
a good choice.
