You need either Grub or Lilo to boot your system even if you just have one Linux flavor installed and aren't dual booting. Grub is a lot more modern and has significant advantages. To get rid of it, all you need to do is replace the master boot record at the beginning of your disk with a new one. (How to do this exactly depends on what you're replacing it with.) -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
