Oops!  I didn't notice your secondary update until after I had replied.
In your secondary update you state that the large-memory option is
present in your /etc/lilo.conf file.  This is further evidence that this
is a duplicate of bug number 505609.  lilo did *not* get run after the
kernel update and before the reboot.  The error message

   Initial ramdisk loads below 4Mb; kernel overwrite is possible.

indicates that lilo loaded the initial RAM file system *below* the 15M
line.  It would not have done that if the large-memory option had been
present in /etc/lilo.conf at the time that lilo's map installer was last
run.  If it had been, it would have loaded the initial RAM file system above
the 16M line and the above error message would not have been issued.
Exactly when did you add the large-memory option to your /etc/lilo.conf?
Did you add it *before* the kernel-upgrade or *after*?  If it was
present *before* the kernel upgrade, then this is proof that lilo did
not get run during the kernel upgrade.  If it was added *after* the
kernel upgrade, we still don't know for sure.  But if you go back to
your original initial RAM file system and manually run lilo, and
everything works, then we can be sure that this is a duplicate of
505609.
