    Also if you have not compiled a kernel, there should be some advice on
    how to reconfigure lilo, and to use more than one kernel choice within
    /etc/lilo.conf. You have to rerun lilo from the command line after
    installing your new kernel in /

    "cd /usr/doc/Linux-HOWTOs" and "less LILO"

    Then /lilo.conf within less and you should see how the /etc/lilo.conf
    file is configured. Leave a choice of booting your old kernel, and your
    new one too, by saving them as different names on disk in "/" (root dir)
    i.e. (appears as "image =<kernelname> in lilo.conf), and make them the
    target of different "labels" in lilo.conf i.e. label =<labelname>
    labelname is the name of your kernel choice on boot.
