When I run lilo to integrate a new kernel, it is rejected.
Anyone have a clue why?

I'd first check that the initrd and image are present
in /boot with exactly those filenames.
Gah! Staring and assuming are a dangerous combination...
Some time between 2.6.13 & 2.6.14, the Debian people changed the
name of the pre-built kernel from -386 to -686, and I didn't notice
that 1 character change... :(
Thanks.
I'll see if it boots now.
Not the debian folks, but you did chose to install a 686 kernel.
That's it
