How did you boot the installer? If you just pressed enter at the first
installer screen it should have presented you with a textual installer
that by default would have asked you for root password and also for your
computer tasks, if you chose as a task "Desktop" it automatically
installs X11 with GDM and the whole Gnome desktop environment.

About grub/lilo, Debian installs grub by default, if you want you can
install lilo after booting and convert your machine to lilo. But for
most users grub is a better choice.

I've never seen the installer not ask for a root password so I don't
know how you could have got to such a state.
