Why do you use seperate directories? Why not name your kernel images
differently? The beginning of lilo.conf suggests that all boot stuff in is
/boot.

Same as above.

The default label is linux, but you didn't define an image under that
name.

Refer above.

Here's my /boot directory:

See how neat and tidy it is? :)
