You should switch to a system where you mount /boot in /dev/hda1,
and put all your kernels in there. Also double check your
master-slave jumpers on everything.
That is what I have resorted to, and it is the reason
that the newer linux versions put their kernels in /boot
instead of /. It makes lilo foolproof.
