hope your graphics card is OK, you can try passing the boot params to
lilo: i.e

console=/dev/tty

it is however possible to boot without a terminal. In that case one
redirect the console output to ones serial port with

console=/dev/ttyS1

one can perhaps use minicom from another pc to loook whats happening, but
not quite sure baout it.
