    always ask good question goggle first
    Both GNU GRUB and LILO understand the real-mode kernel header format and will load the bootsect (one sector), setup code (setup_sects sectors) and compressed kernel image (syssize*16 bytes) into memory. They fill out the loader identifier (type_of_loader) and try to pass appropriate parameters and options to the kernel. After they finish their jobs, control is passed to setup code.

    Unlike GRUB, LILO does not check the configuration file when booting system. Tricks happen when lilo is invoked from terminal.
