I think maybe, just maybe I see what's happening.  It's not so much that
lilo can't find the /boot partition as lilo can't be found.  I could be
very wrong, but doesn't lilo have to be on the mbr of whatever the mobo
sees as the primary drive?  If the mobo is seeing it's onboard disk
controler as the primary disk controller (and the secondary) and the
promise ide controller as the third, then when the bios trys to hand off
the boot prosses to the mbr there is nothing to hand it off to. Just a
thought.
