Dear Harry,

I use Grub rather than Lilo. I'd be surprised if this parameter is
Grub-specific, but anyway, the following is my Debian setting in
/boot/grub/menu.lst:

  title           Debian
  root            (hd0,7)
  kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19 root=/dev/hda8 ro video=vga16:off
  savedefault

If you still can't get it to work, perhaps you should show us your
entire lilo.conf?

regards,
Robert
