It should be in the beginning of lilo. Mine was autogenerated:
# LILO Konfigurations-Datei
# Start LILO global Section
append="mem=96M"
boot=/dev/hda
#compact # faster, but won't work on all systems.
read-only
prompt
timeout=100
vga = normal # force sane state
# End LILO global section
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /vmlinuz
root = /dev/hda1
label = linux
# Linux bootable partition config ends
