+As the name of the image did not change and the convertfs was added 
+at the boot prompt rather than as an append to lilo it I did not run
+"lilo".
+
+But lilo was the issue.
+I had tried with all the kernels I had installed with no success,
+switched to grub using the same command at the boot prompt and the fs
+converted nicely.
+
+Will be interesting to see if any others using lilo have this problem
+or if I am just "lucky".
