Thank you Greg and Chuck for patiently answering my silly questions. I've
never been one of those people who just likes to memorize commands; I want
to know why I'm typing something!

So are Kernel image labels  pointing to some part of lilo.conf then, and is
this why the commands vary so widely?

And how can "mount root=/hda1" work for a start command if a kernel has to
load before there's any mount command to call?
