...no luck yet. running lilo gives an error with the 'hda' and also
mentions something about devfs which I've added in but the message still
appears.

$> mount /cdrom
mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid block device
$> ls -l /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            8 Nov 30 18:02 /dev/cdrom ->
/dev/sr0
$> ls -l /dev/sr0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            4 Nov 22 18:45 /dev/sr0 -> scd0
$> ls -l /dev/scd0
brw-rw----    1 root     cdrom     11,   0 Mar 14  2002 /dev/scd0

In lilo.conf:

image=/vmlinuz
        initrd=/initrd.img
        label=Linux
        read-only
        hda=ide-scsi
        devfs=mount

running lilo:
$> lilo
Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure.
    Name change: '/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc' -> '/dev/sda'
    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.
Unrecognized token "hda" at or above line 115 in file '/etc/lilo.conf'
