You are correct. /etc/lilo.conf seems to be the governing file here, but I have a 
number of statements
in my lilo.conf file and even though the Boot_Image statement points to an image that 
is no longer first
in the list, it still is the default boot image that is used if the computer reboots 
and I am not around.

So, I figured I had to change something 'else' other than just the lilo.conf file and 
noticed my environment statements when I ran ENV.
