THe exact syntax is as follows as described in the Ethernet-HOWTO:

LILO: linux ether=5,0x300,eth0 ether=15,0x280,eth1

The first number is the IRQ the second is the I/O port and the third is the
interface name.

So a lilo.conf file would look like:

boot=/dev/sda
disk=/dev/sda
  bios=0x80
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/zImage-Tape
        label=linux-tape
        root=/dev/sda1
        read-only
        append="ether=5,0x300,eth0 ether=15,0x280,eth1"  <<<This is the
important line to get it to do it every time you boot without having to type it
on the LILO: prompt line.
