Update to 4.017 Intel Nics

tccoggs
Well after running my home box of 2.031 for quite some time I decided to get ambitious an upgrade to 4.016.  I installed the ISO no problem.  I then up2date to 4.017, and everything seemed OK, but in the network/interfaces page, my NICS are not recognized as intel's.  I read all the threads about the issues with these NICS and tried the "default noapic" on startup, and it fixed the problem.  Now is there anyway to have this option automatically loaded at boot??

The thread on it wasn't very clear

Thanks

    In case you encounter a problem with 4.017 Up2Date when booting up the system 
    (NICs/controllers not recognized/working), please try the following: 
    - On the LILO boot prompt, type: "default noapic" 
    - Boot up and check your system 
    - In case this did not help, type: "default noapic acpi=off" 
    - Boot up and check your system 
    - Add the needed parameters to the append line in /emergency/boot/etc/lilo.conf 
    - Call: "lilo -r /emergency/boot"
