Well, things like klogd and ps like to look at the System.map of the
running kernel to be able to convert kernel addresses to symbolic names.

You don't specify them in lilo.conf - just put them in /boot/System.map-VER
eg /boot/System.map-2.2.6
Usually, I put my kernels in /boot/vmlinuz-VER and the System.map file
that goes with it in /boot/System.map-VER
