after u change the config file for grub(grub.conf) or lilo (lilo.conf) ,to make the settings effect u should use grub/lilo to install the boot config on ur MBR of ur HDD
use #grub-install /dev/hda for installing using grub and #lilo -v for installing using lilo .
Hope that will help.

Guys,
How do I know which bootloader I am using (lilo/grub)?
I can use kickstart, but do not know what to do with ks.cfg once i save the configuration.
The problem is I am trying to use "hiddenmenu" option in GRUB. But no matter
how I change the /boot/grub/grub.conf or /boot/grub/menu/1st or
/etc/lilo/lilo.conf, it does not reflect in booting. This include changing
the "label" in these files to "XXX" but the menu in booting still showing me
"DOS" & "LINUX"
Also, is their a way to totally disable menu driven booting. Thus when i boot, I can press TAB and type what i want to boot in instead of it showing me a menu of options??
I know lot of questions but I am confused. Thanks a lot in advance for any help!! -N
