hi, i can't seem to find your previous mails on the list page, and i had
deleted them from my account, so ...

did you remove the apm packages? u have removed the apm argument from
lilo, and since you have built it in as a module, is it still there in
/etc/modutils (i'm not sure how this would make a difference if apm is
removed, but its worth a shot?)

hth.
