I don't really think this is possible; AFAIK the code to load the console
is only present in the kernel - it very possibly doesn't even fit in the
tiny space lilo lives. A workaround is editing lilo.conf and running lilo
before rebooting - not too bad, but not ideal. I don't really know what
I'm talking about here, however.
