In /etc/lilo.conf you will have a section that looks similar to

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18
	label=linux
	read-only
	root=/dev/hda5

Add a line to this such that it reads

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18
        label=linux
        read-only
        append="pci=biosirq"
        root=/dev/hda5

save, and run /sbin/lilo.  Then reboot.

You pass parameters to the kernel this way.  I have a whole list of them
eg

	append="hdc=cdrom,hde=ide-scsi,video=vesa:mtrr,ywrap"

HTH, Matt.
