The 1520 won't autodetect, you will need to pass parameters to it
via lilo.conf or the boot line. If you want to pass it manually, try:
linux aha152x=0x340,11,5
But this can be a pain to type every time. I suggest putting a
line in /etc/lilo/conf to load it automagically. Add the line:
append="aha152x=0x340,11,5"
to your /etc/lilo.conf in the image section you want. Here's one of mine,
as an example:
-----------------------------------------
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
#prompt
#timeout=50
image=/vmlinuz.2.1.97
label=2.1.97
root=/dev/hda3
read-only
append="aha152x=0x340,11,0"
image=/vmlinuz.2.1.96
label=2.1.96
root=/dev/hda3
read-only
append="aha152x=0x340,11,0"
