Steve,

You should have boot options in mmc, but you just need to run drakboot if you can't 
find it from the command line as root and you can configure it from there.

That´s what I thought, but there is no interface in MMC to do this.

That´s what I thought, but when I run drakboot, even as root, there are 
no option to edit the way lilo boots. See the screen shots of drakboot 
on my machine:

That´s why I resorted to editing lilo direct from lilo.conf.

I checked before I posted, and ya, I was surprised to find no option for this.
Weird.

On the second screen shot if you click okay it then takes you into another menu where 
you can change the way lilo boots.
