lilo does not listen?



Hi,

I am trying to set up a harddiskless workstation.  Almost everything works
fine, execpt lilo. I have made a bootfloppy with the following kernel
options:
append="root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.1.1:/mnt/nfs
ip=192.168.1.2:192.168.1.1:192.168.1.1:255.255.255.0:lament:eth0:"

as decribed in various documents.
But when I boot the client computer, the kernel says:

eth0: Setting Rx mode to 1 addresses.
IP-Config: Complete:
	device=eth0, addr=192.168.1.2, mask=255.255.255.0, gw=192.168.1.1,
host=lamet, domain=, nis-domain=(none), bootserver=192.168.1.1,
rootserver=192.168.1.1, rootpath=
Partition chech:	< and then the kernel tries to boot from my initrd, and
is unable to mount root fs on 00:00


I have portmapper running on the server and I can mount the remote
filesystem from another computer, so that works fine. I have disabled
dhcp. 

What should I do to make it work?

Thanks in advance,
Sebastiaan
