Thanks to all that have posted to this thread.
Last night finally got it to work and no more boot from floppy ;o)
The final lilo.conf was:
boot=/dev/hda
install=/kernel/boot/boot.b
map=/kernel/boot/map
delay=50
timeout=70
compact
prompt
default=Win95
image=/kernel/boot/vmlinuz
root=/dev/

I would fix him up if the Win95 boot sector hadn't already been
overwritten. As is, that will just keep the problem from happening again.
This guy has got to sys c: from Win95 as well, to restore the old 95 boot

That isn't going to work. The "Windows 95 boot manager" doesn't exist. I
don't know what URL you are referring to, but I am willing to bet that it
talks about the windows nt boot manager, which will boot linux.
95 will only boot itself and a "previous DOS operating system," and the
latter only

I think the problem is different here. You see, what is happening in the
lilo.conf shown (at least to the best of my understanding, and I am no
expert) is that LILO is installed on /dev/hda1 -- that is, the first
partition. The stanza you show would just boot from the first partition,

For win95 I use:

Well, tanks to all that helped me last week with the lilo problem, but
I'm stil in trouble with it.
I got Lilo to boot, I mean when the computer starts lilo appears asking
for what OS to launch. If I select Linux it goes ok, but if I select
Win95 ( default ) it will launch lilo again!(??)
