<Did the deed, still boots to the old kernel.  I've read the man

<still no other boot option.  Uncommenting the alias line helped give
<options for boot aliases, yes, but I don't seem to have keyboard access
<when lilo wants me to choose.  I'm stumped.  I'm sure I have missed
<something obvious, but have no idea where to begin thinking about

But the best one is this link, configure ur kernel under X. If you follow
the steps you'll have a new kernel and your lilo entries without any hassle.

Hmh, can'T find my bookmark :-(

But this one also decribes how to do this with xconfigure and also about
configuring lilo entries!
