Probably no support for your root filesystem compiled in.
Did you say "yes" to ext2 in the "make config" stage?

Another option may be (I'm not sure) that you have SCSII disks, and
your kernel is apparently (dev 03:01) configured to load the first
partition on the first IDE disk. If so, change the "root = /dev/hda1"
statement in /etc/lilo.conf to where your root fs really is.
