Hi, E T! First of all, thanks for taking the time to answer!
No, haven't passed any kind of parameters to lilo.conf -- and yes, please, I do need instructions if you have enough time to provide them (an URL to a tutorial should be enough if you know any). I seem to have selected lilo with graphical menu at install. Anyway, I can't edit /etc/lilo.conf because I can't boot any kind of Linux for now! Thanks in advance for any kind of recommendation!
