anyone?

I believe that LILO has password protection that you can use to prevent
this.

Also, you can have LILO NOT prompt prior to bootup (remove the prompt
option in /etc/lilo.conf)

As a last resort, you can move /bin/sh elsewhere.  But this would cause
other problems & probably isn't worth it.

Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but
they can usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake.
