hmm, you need those device files before you can run lilo.
I forgot what partitions you had defined, just pretend I list them all
and make whatever corrections you need to with my device names:
mount /dev/sda1 /scsiroot
mkdir /scsiroot/usr
mount /dev/sda3 /scsiroot/usr
mount /dev/sda4 /scsiroot/var
mount /dev/sda5 /scsiroot/home
tar --one-file-system -cf - / /usr /var /home | tar -C /scsiroot -xvf -
[ ie. mount the new filesystems in the correct place relative to each
other, then tar up the originals, piping the output to a tar that does
the restore. You can leave off the 'v' options if you want, everything
else is pretty much required. ]
