Are you able to boot the HD partition using the floppy?
If not, please say exactly what you are doing and what
the result is.

If you are able to boot the HD partition using the floppy,
what exactly does it say when you do:
-------
lilo -v
-------

BTW, the reason I suggested making a DOS partition on
the HD and booting from DOS was to avoid the problems
with LILO (which is notorious for causing problems).

Cheers,
