Used to have this on an old 486: the "Li" is actually a message saying "I got this far through the boot". There are fixes but I have not the time to search for them. Try "man 5 lilo.conf" for how to set the verbose flag for progress messages. I think I found the original solution in the RedHat knowledgebase. It was a list of causes for failing at each stage of the boot.
