One thing is missing:
disk=/dev/hdb bios=0x80 # Tell LILO to treat the second
# disk as if it were the first
# disk (BIOS ID 0x80).
and one other should be different:
root=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5
(note the bus0 - because that's where your system wants to get / from
when booted from that (now bus1) drive!
