You mentioned that these booting problems started when changes were made
to your bios settings. Have you checked that the bios setting is set to
boot from /dev/hda?

What is your actual lilo.conf, grub config file, and fstab files look
like? Does the lilo.conf have read-only statements? I'm curious which of 
the two kernels you mentioned is set in the image=/boot/vmlinuz line and
if changing the image manually to the second kernel image would make a
difference.
