Answer / debamita ghosh
LILO stands for LInux LOader. LILO was originally developed by Werner Almesberger.
When your computer starts up, the BIOS executes a bootstrap program which lies in the Master Boot Recorder(MBR) of your first hard drive or floppy. The MBR lies on the first sector of this device. The job of the bootstrap program is to locate and load the operating system. If you are using Linux then this will go out at the boot and load the kernel into memory. LILO can take over this job and also act as your boot manager.
