Can I second the request to keep lilo around?
Until it becomes possible to duplicate lilo -R safely, grub hasn't surpassed lilo's features and can't (imho) replace lilo completely. Availability as a package that's not generally included in any installation profiles but can be selected specifically during install would be an excellent compromise.
I have a few machines on which I've grown to love Lilo on the MBR and grub on the chain-loaded partitions. It's beautiful. It's magic.

Hello,
I just read that Fedora is going to ditch lilo, leaving grub. Grub is great for many systems, but it's a nightmare for people booting on software-RAID. I strongly suggest that lilo still be included in Fedora until grub becomes able to install properly on software-RAID boot-partitions.
