I have used LILO for about 10 years on a number of different vendors

I have never ran in to this before.

When Woody boots up it is like a command line and you get no menu to 
pick different kernels from.
This was fine until I compiled a new kernel, lilo it, but I have no 
way to pick it out to boot from.

How do you convince lilo to use a menu while booting???
