Thanks for the pointer Ed, Ive looks at the sys admin manual http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/pdf/rhel-sag-en.pdf
but it dosnt seem to explain how to change from grub to lilo as that is what Im more comfortable with. Its there an initab type of setting to say -use lilo rather than grub. There is nothing obvious , that I can see. That doc seems to refer to new install vis kick start
which doc should I read? http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/
thanks Bob

Hi Ive built a new kernel and made changes to /etc/lilo.conf.aconada
From my past experience I had to run lilo to test the config and make an entry for the changes to the conf file.
Ive added /boot/vmlinux-new-kernel-version labile=linux_2.6
When I boot up Grub dosnt see tehnew entry!
Ive done find / -name ''lilo''
and no executable is found. Typically this is in /sbin
grub is not the same as lilo. Please check out the Sysadmin guides at Red Hat's web site for a detailed discussion on the various boot loaders work and how to configure them.
When making changes to grub's boot loader config, you do not edit /etc/lilo.conf.anaconda - you edit /etc/grub.conf
