Right,
I had the same problems (added to the new Mesa compatibility...)
At the end of the install, you have to go to the F2 console and create a
symbolic link to vmlinuz.
It should then finish the install (with an error message for an unavailable
X font). BUT... it won't boot because it doesn't find the inittab and there
is no prompt and no delay.
At boot time, press the right shift key, which gives you the login prompt.
Then type 'linux init=/etc/inittab', and it should boot.
run lilo correctly and it should go.
