Re: a twisted use of lilo

["Bryan Mark" <bryanmark@example.com>]

On my linux RH7.1, the /proc/cmdline has the "BOOT_IMAGE=" from lilo in it. 
So you shouldn't have to pass it anything if you switch off the image name.

If you don't want to depend on lilo - You could also compile 2 *versions* of 
the kernel by changing just the EXTRAVERSION setting in the kernel Makefile, 
and use uname to switch between the 2. Seems like overkill however.
