- Unlike most operating system loader, LILO can boot several different
- configuration of _L_i_n_u_x. It is even possible to install Linux several
- time on the same machine, each installation in a different partition,
- and use a single LILO configuration to boot them all.
-
- You are allowed to select which configuration is the default.

- _L_i_n_u_x is a multi-tasking and multi-user system. It can do quite a lot
- without a user sitting in front of it. This screen define which
- operational mode linux will default to when booting.
