I ALWAYS use an expert install (press f1 when the cdrom first boots and at boot: type expert) since it gives one more options. lilo can be installed on the first sector of the boot partition (hda7 in your case), boot disk option is available.

Yes, I agree, I will have to go the f1 expert route next time,
I have always had the choice of expert install in the first of the
install windows before, seems like something had changed.
