Can't get 'initrd' to load from lilo

Hi All,

I don't think this is a kernel problem, but I can't get lilo
to load an initial ramdisk. Is there any known problem which
I'm missing?

I've got 'initrd=/boot/initrd' in the lilo.conf (and using
lilo-20) but the ram disk is never loaded.

I haven't used ramdisks prior, but I believe that lilo should
load it before the kernel? (I'm using 2.2.0-pre5)

Any pointers or tips would be gratefully appreciated.

Please cc responses to me, I'm not on this list.

-Greg
