[CLUE-Tech] Still need lilo help

[Dan Harris]

I've seen this before with hosed boot partitions.  The key for me was to 
boot to a rescue / tool disk and run fdisk.  Delete ALL the partitions, 
write the partition table, then either run fdisk again or partition it 
during install..

Hope this helps,
