There is a possibility that another kernel may be reordering your
SCSI disks differently.

Try several roots in your /etc/lilo.conf file and see which one works.
Like this:

#
# Lilo boot-configuration script.
#
boot = /dev/sda
message = /boot/message
compact
delay = 15 # optional, for systems that boot very quickly
vga = normal # force sane state

image = /vmlinuz
root = /dev/sda1
label = linux-a

image = /vmlinuz
root = /dev/sdb1
label = linux-b

image = /vmlinuz
root = /dev/sdc1
label = linux-c



Cheers,
Dick Johnson
