Sorry: this is the first time I've had to deal with these things manually.
I've now run "/sbin/lilo" as root -- is that simple form sufficient to
carry the changes from lilo.conf into the actual boot process?

Now:
/home/adam $ dmesg |grep cd
hdc: attached ide-cdrom driver.
hdd: attached ide-cdrom driver.
/home/adam $ dmesg |grep command
Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=Linux root=301 hdd=ide-scsi

There is no such file, so I'll assume you mean I should create one.

I know hdd CD-RW needs to use ide-scsi in order for cdrecord to work, but
hdc is a DVD/CD-reader -- would you recommend setting that up as a SCSI
device too?
