    I built bzImage.mykernel and wanted to add it to the set of bootable kernels by editing lilo.conf, such as:
    ----------
    image=/boot/bzImage.mykernel
    label=mykernel
    root=/dev/hda5
    read-only
    ----------
    but I couldn't find lilo.conf.
    Now I know my ubuntu uses GRUB2 but this is totally different.
    What do I have to do?

    Do as oldfred suggests and post the results of the bootscript.

    It would also be helpful if you tell us what operating systems you have installed, how much RAM, graphics card etc.

    The more information we have, the better advice we can offer.

    Thanks.
