[suse-security] Running lilo after kernel update ?



SuSE 9.0 Professional  and  YAST2

Just downloaded  and installed   k_deflt

and a "warning" or "informational" message says to:

please execute /sbin/lilo after installing
the update kernel and prior to rebooting

lilo doesn't exist  (as I recall the new default is grub?)   So what do I 
do with "grub" to accomplish whatever the warning was for ??

Patches downloaded   --  Installed  --  Linker automatically runs  -  Quit 
 back to a command prompt -     What next ?

Per Olaf's announcement    "The grub bootloader does not require any further actions to be performed 
after the new kernel images have been moved in place by the rpm Update 
command."

I did NOT issue the "rpm update"  (I'm guessing Yast2 did that).      Do I 
have to issue the command or am I at the reboot stage ?

The system is remote, so I'b being extra cautious/anal about it....
