wen you have the boot partition after the 1023 cilinder of the hd, lilo can't start the system. you may have to include the lba32 option in you lilo configuration.

boot you linux with the floppy disk.
edit the /etc/lilo.conf file(you must be root).
you must remplase the line that says linear with lba32.
then run: # lilo -v to write the changes in your master boot record.
reboot

or try typing /sbin/lilo
you will see something similiar like this
Added Window *
Added Linux *
Added Hda1

It means it allready save whatever that you save after editing /etc/lilo.conf or before you edit the lilo.conf you may try this. might works. Then reboot and try the Lilo again.
