Okay.  lilo.conf uses an initrd image for both the 2.4.9-34 kernel, as well
as the 2.4.20-18.7 copy.

Really dumb question, but does the ordering of directives in lilo.conf
matter?  This is what it looks like:

prompt
timeout=50
default=linux.bak
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
message=/boot/message
lba32

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.9-34
        label=linux.bak
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.9-34.img
        read-only
        root=/dev/md0

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-18.7
        label=linux
        root=/dev/md0
        read-only
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.20-18.7.img

I'm going to try arranging the directives for 2.4.20-18.7 in the same order
as 2.4.9-34.
