LILO Linux Bootloader to cease development at the end of the year
The development of LILO as classic bootloader for GNU/Linux systems was restarted in June 2010. Because of the simpleness LILO has some advantages comparing with Grub and Grub2. Nowadays LILO is not the bootloader for all situations. But LILO is longtime proved and stable. And it comes with basic GPT and RAID support.
