I am having trouble getting lilo to install using gentoo with the 2.6.6 kernel.

I am using this lilo.conf
Code:
boot=/dev/hda7
prompt
timeout=10
default=gentoo
map=/boot/map

image=/boot/kernel-2.6.6
        label=gentoo
        read-only
        append="devfs=mount init=/linuxrc real_root=/dev/hda8"
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.6

image=/boot/kernel-2.6.6-win4lin-r1
        label=win4lin
        read-only
        append="devfs=mount init=/linuxrc real_root=/dev/hda8"
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.6-win4lin-r1


When I run /sbin/lilo, I get the following:
Code:
Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure.
    Name change: '/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc' -> '/dev/hda'
    The kernel was compiled with DEVFS_FS, but 'devfs=mount' was omitted
        as a kernel command-line boot parameter; hence, the '/dev' directory
        structure does not reflect DEVFS_FS device names.
Added gentoo *
Added win4lin


When I try to boot into lilo, my screen flashes a few times then my machine reboots reboots.

I have tried using just one kernel and get the same result.

The gentoo forums have been no help. Does anyone have suggestions? Thanks in advance.
