I am not sure about that, here is my setup for lilo at home, where the NT
bootmanager is in charge, and all it needs to now is how to boot from
the start of the partition.
boot=/dev/hda5
root=/dev/hda5
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
append="mem=20M"
image=/vmlinuz
label=linux
read-only
image=/vmlinuz.new
label=new
read-only
image=/vmlinuz.old
label=old
