Graphical Lilo

I was toying around with that new Linux distro Storm Linux 2000 and one
of the things I liked about it was a graphical Lilo prompt that was a
menu based thing.  Does anyone know if it's at all possible to do that
with the lilo that comes with Mandrake 7.0?

If it involves pulling the version of linux that came with storm off
it's CD........  could someone help me with that, it's debian based and
I can't figure out where the various pacakages are.  It's easy on RH
based....  /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS or /mnt/cdrom/i386/RedHat/RPMS

Thanks

This poster wanted a graphical LiLo prompt, not a configuration GUI

Thank you.

And besides... Klilo screws up the lilo.conf file.  I had a hell of a time
getting into linux after that thing got through with it
