I cant remember exachtly how Redhat askes about which kernel to use for
booting during the install process, but what you seem to have done is
choosen the kernel for a machine with a faster cpu than you have.
You might have choosen the kernel for SMP machine.
I belive you can use the rescue disks to boot the sysytem and install a
suitable kernel from your CDrom, once you have done that dont forget to
change /etc/lilo.conf to reflect the changes and then most of all dont
forget to rerun lilo.
