Lilo sets the variable "$BOOT_IMAGE" with the selected image.
You can modify your boot-scripts like this:


#!/bin/sh

if [ $BOOT_IMAGE = "dvb" ]
then
	....				# starting dvb

elif [ $BOOT_IMAGE = "no_dvb" ]
then
	....				# starting something else

elif [ $BOOT_IMAGE = "x" ]
then
	....				# X

fi


You'll also need different entry's in "/etc/lilo.conf" for this, but all 
can use the same kernel.

BTW: I'm not familar with the Debian booting stuff, I use my own 
constructions.
