1. boot up the KnoppMyth disk to the setup screen
2. press Alt F2 to goto another screen
3. mount your Linux partition to /mnt
4. chroot to newly mounted partition
            chroot /mnt
5. modify your lilo.conf file
            vi /etc/lilo.conf
6. make sure the partitions are correct
7. execute lilo 
           lilo
8. reboot
9. issue should be fixed.


I had this problem when I tried to install on my second hard disk and the
lilo command was not setup during normal install.
