I still cannot figure out how to get rid of the gui boot screen and
return to my normal vga=791 black and white boot screen.
It must be something simple, but what?

John, are you talking about this entry in lilo.conf?

image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=linux-nonfb
        root=/dev/hda1
        initrd=/boot/initrd.img
        append="devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi"
        read-only
Yep, here's mine

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
vga=791
default="91-2.4.21.0"
keytable=/boot/uk.klt
prompt
nowarn
timeout=200
message=/boot/message
menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21-0.13mdk
   label="91-2.4.21.0"
   root=/dev/hda7
   initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.21-0.13mdk.img
   append="devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi acpi=off"
   vga=791
   read-only
as you can see the vga=791 goes in twice, globally, and specifically, 
though I guess the specific arguement prevails ?

but I think I'm beginning to loose the train of these various sub-threads
