Hmm...are you saying that you STILL can't get 2.2.22 installed or are
wondering why it "added" the images you had already and wouldn't add
the new one? If the latter, it's because it didn't make ANY changes.
I'm guessing you had one of the images defined as "linux" up until
you decided to add the new image and relabled all of them. Therefore
when lilo barfed it didn't write any of your changes. OR, you had the
default specified as something other than "linux" before you decided
to add the new image and wanted to make one of the other images the
default and forgot to finish editing the default image name, at which
point lilo also would "barf", effectively saying "no default image"
(although it didn't say it in as nice a manner! <G>) 

Hmmm...who's the author of LILO? Maybe we ought to get him to come up
with some plain english error messages that even a Windows user could
understand??? ;-)
