Why have GRUB and LILO stayed so popular across all major - nix distros distributions?
GRUB and LILO are easy to configure. With them, you can easily boot multiple operating systems from the same menu on the same computer. To triple boot OS/2, Windows 98, and Windows XP, each operating system needs it's own bootloader, and to manage them all, you need to either install a bootloader that can load them all (Smart Boot Manager, Gujin, GAG, etc...), or mess around with boot sectors. With LILO and GRUB, to boot a compatible *nix system, all it takes is editing a simple text file specifying what partition the operating system's kernel is on, and the name of the kernel, or just chainload to a disk or partition to handle the various Windoze flavors, or other proprietary bootloaders.
Short answer - because they work, and in the 'nix world if it ain't broke. . .
But the new kid on the block - Grub 2 - isn't just an incremental upgrade, quite different in several fundamental ways - most of them IMO improvements. Give a recent Debian-based distro (Ubuntu, Mint) a whirl to check it out and get yourself ready for the future!
