Re: /etc/lilo.conf and system.map mismatches -- my syntax ?

[Theodore Knab <tjk@annapolislinux.org>]

I have a 'map=' parameter, but when I use 2 kernels of the same stock as 
in the full lilo.conf below the wrong system.map file is being loaded.

For example, it seems that the xfs kernel loads the system-2.4.10 system map
file rather than the one I want it to load, which is the
'/boot/system-2.4.19-xfs2' file.

Is my syntax wrong ?

/boot/system-2.4.19
/boot/system-2.4.19-xfs2

System.map-2.2.19
System.map-2.4.19-xfs2
System.map-2.4.22

Here is a copy of my lilo.conf without the the comments.
