Couldn't get X to work w/ hacking around so I did an install again and realized how much a pain it is.
So I followed the steps manually 1st the lilo install upuntil the lilo part and then the grub piece.
I patched the two together into a script but I'm not sure how to upload / share it w/ you guys.
I'll cut and paste it and maybe it will help. I ran through it to get the syntax straight but didn't do an install w/ it so be cautious but thought it might help.
Anyway the good news is I seem to be up and running now, the way I want to be... mostly atleast. Now it's custimazation time.
