hd parameters at boot up



When I boot my system I have to tell the kernel
the hard drive parameters.

LILO: linux hda=1010,12,55 hdb=683,16,38

I would like to get this set up so I don't have
to manually enter this information.

I tried setting up my lilo.conf file as follows:
boot=/dev/hda
delay = 100
root=/dev/hda2
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
read-only
disk=/dev/hda
  cylinders=1010
  heads=12
  sectors=55
disk=/dev/hdb
  cylinders=683
  heads=16
  sectors=38
image=/vmlinuz
  label=linux
image=/vmlinuz-old
  label=old

Then I ran 'lilo'

However I still have to enter the parameters manually.
What am I doing wrong here?

thanks

Brad
