I am really new to linux and I have no idea how to solve this problem but, my 
/etc/fstab is:  
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0 
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 
/mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom supermount 
dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0 
/mnt/floppy /mnt/floppy supermount 
dev=/dev/fd0,fs=vfat,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,codepa$/mnt/floppy2 
/mnt/floppy2 supermount 
dev=/dev/fd1,fs=vfat,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,code$/dev/hda1 

and the /etc/lilo.conf:

image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=linux
        root=/dev/hda10
        initrd=/boot/initrd.img
        append=quiet devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi
        vga=788
        read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=linux-nonfb
        root=/dev/hda10
        initrd=/boot/initrd.img
        append=devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi
        read-only

Thanks a lot to Robin and to Civileme, Oder.
