I can't help you with the mouse problem, however, the blank screen while booting is 
probably due to missing: 
 
CONFIG_VT=y 
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y 
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y 
 
in your kernel config while having a vga=791 (or some such) in your lilo.conf.  You 
might not need all those, but it shouldn't hurt to put them all in.
