grub didn't install properly

lilo didn't install properly
because your grub.conf and menu.lst is wrong
and/or your lilo.conf is wrong
boot from a "standalone or install media"
boot floppy, standalone cd, compact flash, network boot
- once it boots off the boot media:
- mount your disks and its partitions ( lets say /mnt/hda )
cd /mnt/hda
chroot /mnt/hda /bin/bash
grub-install /dev/hda -- or lilo -C /etc/lilo.your-version.conf
unmount everything and reboot from the orig hd
