In redhat If there /etc/lilo.conf then lilo is installed or if
/etc/grub.conf then grub is installed. If you had not selected lilo in
the installation process then redhat does not create a lilo.conf file,
instead it creates a lilo.conf.anaconda or some sim file.
Also grub creates /boot/grub/ directory which has lots of grub stage
files...
Instead Simply query the package manager to see which one is installed
For rpm based systems it would be
rpm -qa | grep grub
rpm -qa | grep lilo
