        FYI I have never installed anything with Xvesa.. Must be
someone else. <grin> RE: Boot Loaders, I don't think Steven likes Grub
but I've found it to be the easiest and best of the lot with less of
the problems I read on the list.. First time through was not easy for
me, but that's par for the course.. We use it here, exclusively, for
better or worse. :^).. I've used Lilo for years and like it equally
but I keep forgetting to run it after making changes to .conf..:^)
