| "Other" - each machine has it's own OS and purpose.
My linux machines only get booted using a dos disk if they need a special program to set up the hardware.

But the loader of choice is lilo.:)

LILO, but only on my laptop. Each of my other machines is dedicated to a particular OS, for a particular use.

I've used GRUB in the past and find it highly useful, but don't use it now as LILO's installed and GRUB is somewhat of a pain to install (as I remember).

I presume that "Windows Built in Booter" means the NT OS Loader....

I have used GRUB now and then, but I like editing the lilo.conf and #lilo instead.

Dual boot? Oh, you mean when I have a second kernel to boot. I usually just bzdisk it and boot the floppy. Better than messing with LILO.

I voted for other though I use Lilo but not to dual boot, to boot between kernels.

LILO for me, more support and easier to configure in my experience.

Other, I use a floppy to boot Linux, because I haven't been able to get Linux and Win2k to play nice together. |

I've got Win2k and Linux working just fine on a dual boot system. The thing that I've found is that you must install Win2k first... then install Linux. Lilo handles it just fine. |

I use XOSL as a boot manager, and LILO as a boot loader on my linux partitions. |
