Hi Barry.

Well, I've installed Slackware with the SuSE Bootdisk and a
slackware rootdisk (color.gz).
Then I've used the SuSE bootdisk to get into my system.
Then I've applied the patches (1 for upgrading my linux version
from 2.0.34 to 2.0.35, and one to patch the AIC7xxx driver).
Then you rebuild your kernel.
then I copied the zImage file to /boot.
then I opened the file lilo.conf and edited it so the 
image parameter in the configuration file pointed to the new
bootimage.
Then I've runned Lilo and everything worked fine ever since.

The patches can be downloaden from ftp.dialnet.net
The kernel patch is in the kernel directory and the AIC7xxx patch
is in the AIC7xxx directory on this site.

Good luck!
