Well, it turned out that I could reboot using a 2.4.24 kernel image I
had installed.

Once booted I was able to run lilo and it fixed the problem ?!

I'm still perplexed as to why it didn't want to boot.

I guess I'm still wondering how to update lilo if you boot with a
different root fs?  Ay clues?

Thanks for your help :-)
