If you installed with kernel-package you could probably get by with just
running "lilo" again.
cd to /
do a ls -l vmlinuz
that link should be pointed to your new kernel. You should also have a
link pointing to your old kernel. Probably "vmlinuz.old"
At any rate you want to point the entry "image=" in /etc/lilo.conf to
your kernels. Here is an example -
image=/vmlinuz
label=deb2.4
read-only
root=/dev/hda12
image=/vmlinuz.old
label=deb2.2.18
read-only
root=/dev/hda12
After you set that up run -
# /sbin/lilo
if you get a "geometry" error -
# /sbin/lilo -L
Then reboot.
