Thanks for the suggestion. I also suspected that lilo does not like the '.' character in the string. This problem also exists in v 0.8.5. I guess no one is opting for the lilo boot loader in their installation. I have not used lilo for a looong time and there were suggestions on the soekris list, to use lilo instead of grub, to resolve cold boot problems. I was hoping that the VL installer would do it for me since it is an option in the install script but no joy. Meanwhile, I have experimented with extlinux and figured out it's nuances for a couple of embedded distros. My cold boot problem, with a soekris 5501, has been resolved by using the extlinux boot loader.
