And my point was, you need to run lilo regardless of initrd. so, why not just run it anyway? I remember booting without running lilo after a kernel update. I didn't.
No, if you don't have the new initrd running lilo does nothing: step 1) install the kernel image, new modules, and System.map step 2) create the new initrd with the new modules and copy it into /boot step 3) create the new lilo map that knows about the new initrd and kernel You can't do step 3 before you've done 1 or 2. -- -ckm
