Description of problem:
installing 2.4.18-11uml and then changing lilo and running it gives:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

3.change lilo.conf appropriately and rerun lilo
	

Actual Results:  Fatal: Kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-11uml is too big

modern kernels.

Umm... that's not how you use the uml kernel.  You instead run it directly as
opposed to booting it from a boot loader
