Yes, that fixes the problem; but what does lilo is ok if mbr is
installed properly: if mbr is in /dev/hda (ie, the MBR), lilo can
be installed in /dev/hda2, and then mbr will boot the partition
with the "boot" flag set, where you installed lilo.

: I think liloconfig sets 'boot' to the same value as 'root'.
