First thing - you aren't using LILO, but something else called GRUB.
generally, what you have to do is to boot your to your linux using your
trusty book diskette that you made during installation (you did creat a
boot diskette during instal,, now did you ?), and then re setup your boot
loader.
The problem is, that GRUB is a bit difficult to set up - if you didn't
even know how it's called, most likely you wont succeed in seting it up.
I assume you got it installed by by doing the mistake of letting your
linux installation set it up for you. there are two linux distribution
which I know use GRUB by default - old Mandrakes (before 8.0) and new
RedHats (7.1 and above IIRC). since you didn't tell us which do you use, I
cannot help you, but if it's Mandrake then there is a "configuration
utility" called drakboot which will help you setup GRUB again.
