 It's in there, unless I messed up somewhere with the kernel rebuild - I'll
actually make the effort to do all the steps correctly tonite and see if it

 Are there any lilo arguments that need to be passed in the append line?

My kernels are minimal only to the extent that if I don't need it, it doesn't 
go
