Maybe post up a copy of your lilo.conf
It's small, so here it all is (with my two changes to the labels):

Hmmm, is your bios able to boot from a scsi disk ? The old reliable "/dev/hda1" always works. But I guess in your situation, it won't. :-)
change-rules reset default = windows_2K
Why not try it without this line? You have windows_2K listed, but no label matches it. The first in the list below is the default anyhow.

P.S. Did you know you can now have encrypted passwords with lilo? Just put password="" in the appropriate sections and lilo will stop and ask for the password and encrypt it, so no more bare passwords in lilo.conf. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
