It comes with LILO. And it doesn't recognize if you have another Linux distro installed - it wipes everything out to make room for itself.

It might be a litle more flexible than that but I didn't care since I was putting it on a fresh machine. The Crossover stuff is interesting so you can run all sorts of Microsoft junk on it. I've been messing with Linux since 1991 when I ran across Linus himself (long story) and have only really been using Linux for server related things. But this distro is pretty neat for a desktop. Very windoze-like.
