I can't say for sure because I'm not yet running 2.6 kernel, but perhaps
it's lba32 option?
Here are some of the lines from my lilo.conf:
---
lba32
boot=/dev/hda
root=/dev/hda7
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.26-1-686
label=2.4.26-1-686
initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.4.26-1-686
read-only
---
Note the initrd option line in my "image" stanza for my 2.4.26 kernel.
good luck
