Ahhh..but the stock Debian kernel ships with sbpcd as a module!
/etc/lilo.conf only affects stuff compiled into the kernel. The correct
lilo.conf syntax would be 'append = "sbpcd=0x230,1"', anyways, if it was 
builtin to the kernel.

Better is adding 'options sbpcd sbpcd=0x230,1' to /etc/modutils/sbpcd,
and running 'update-modules'. Then 'rmmod sbpcd; modprobe sbpcd' should
work, and it will load automatically without autoprobe the next time you
reboot.
