There's a nice write up on the IBM site about lilo, grub and the boot up process. It's not DSL specific and you may have to register with IBM (it's free). Here's the link LPI exam 102 prep... Topic 106 boot up

The DSL frugal install has the option for GRUB.  I've used both LILO and GRUB and while both will work I find GRUB to be easier to modify.

======== Note =========
The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR'
If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts.
If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog"
Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "
