Use some other bootable media, such as a livecd, to boot from and mount
your root partition. After fixing any problems with lilo's config,
rerun lilo using that fixed config (you may need to download a copy of
lilo, depending on what's on the bootdisk). Alternately, you can switch
bootloaders, if you really want.
