I never used grub, thats the thing. It just seemed to bring itself into
the mix. I never configured for grub. Wasn't even sure if Slack had it!
Either way, I got it going. All is well.
Next hurdle is dual boot Slack 10 and Mandrake 10. You wouldn't happen
to know the correct lilo.conf for that combo, would you???
