I suggest this (my english is very poor, please, do corrections) :
________________________________________________________

<i>Error scenario:</i>
<b>Shuttle SK41G : First screen of install shows horizontal stripes.</b>

<br><i>Why:</i>
Hardware not compliant with old vesa-1.2 used by LILO.

<br><i>Solution:</i>
Don't worry ! Press Enter to continue (install or update from CD) or F1 for 
other modes.
