I installed RH 9, choosing LILO as the bootloader. Immediateely after the install, I ran up2date and chose to only update the kernel. When the machine rebooted, it tried to use GRUB as the bootloader! I am able to reboot with the installation disc into rescue mode, but I don't know where to go from there. How can I make LILO the bootloader at this stage of the game? If I reinstall, updating the kernel (which is a must) will only cause the same affect I fear. Unless there is some way to verify that LILO will be my bootloader after the kernel up2date, but before reboot. Thank you.
