It means you haven't set up lilo correctly. /dev/hdb1 is the 1st partition
on the slave hard drive of your primary controler. The message means its not
there.
If you want to set the system to boot from the hard disk rather than the
floppy, look in the bios.

I don't think that you have to reformate the drive. Has the disk been the
primary one before? It should also be enough to boot from floppy and edit the
/etc/lilo.conf manually to boot from /dev/hdbx.
Much luck!
