Make your append entry the first line. I am using two NIC's in this way.
You might also try being more ambiguous and let the kernel find the
addresses on its own. My lilo.conf looks like this:

append = "ether=0,0,eth1"
boot=/dev/hda1
root=/dev/hda1
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=50
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only



#safety net - this is a known working kernel
image=/vmlinuz.safe
label=safe
root=/dev/hda1
vga=normal
