Well this machine only has one hard drive, and it does load the boot
loader off of it, so I don't think that is the issue.

The "linux" kernel boots /boot/vmlinuz, and the "linux-enterprise"
kernel boots /boot/vmlinuz-enterprise. Here are those files you wanted
to take a look at:
<lilo.conf>
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
default="linux-enterpris"
keytable=/boot/us.klt
prompt
nowarn
timeout=100
message=/boot/message
menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw
image=/boot/vmlinuz-enterprise
label="linux-enterpris"
root=/dev/hda1
initrd=/boot/initrd-enterprise.img
append="devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi acpi=ht splash=silent"
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux"
root=/dev/hda1
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi acpi=ht splash=silent"
vga=788
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux-nonfb"
root=/dev/hda1
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi acpi=ht"

</lilo.conf>
