Hmmm, it's hard to say exactly since I haven't had that happen to me for
a while...

What were the other options for installing lilo were avaliable to you at
the time?  Is winblows also installed on that HD?  If so, what
partition?  Has the partition (/dev/hda1) been made bootable (something
along the lines of "toggle bootable flag...fdisk will tell you the
answer to this...)?

Good luck,
Cliff
