    Cannot boot using lilo

    I tried to boot using lilo, the boot manager I use to use.

    So, I did:

    Installed lilo from the new kubuntu/dapper 4 system
    using apt-get (adept does not work - see another post
    in this forum). I did not run lilo here.

    Rebooted by current Gentoo installation and entered the
    following in my lilo.conf:

    image = /SDB6/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-15-386
    root = /dev/sdb6
    label = "Kubuntu"
    read-only
    append = "ro quiet splash"
    initrd = /SDB6/boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-15-386

    Note: /SDB6 is the partition /dev/hdb6, where the new
    kubuntu/dapper 4 system was installed.

    After running lilo and rebooting I got the usual
    splash but the system hangs after the second message
    "Mounting root filesystem" blanking the screeen and
    displaying a blinking cursor on the upper left corner.
    Needed to type CTRL+ALT+DEL.

    Thanks for any help/comments.
