There is no background image file for LILO. All you have is the
LILO prompt "LILO:" to put additional parameters or load alter-
nate OSs. The kernel is run immediately thereafter. 

There are ways to put images through the kernel, so that kernel
bootup messages can come in a window in the GUI.  IIRC, Stormix
used to do it that way ... Stormix is now gone broke ! It  just
increases the kernel size, and slows the booting process ...

You can have images in the subsequent init process too, but not
at the LILO level.

On your own you can add ASCII art in /etc/motd or /etc/issue to
make things a bit colourful if you so desire.
