It now looks like this:
--snip--
boot=/dev/hda3
# compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
root=/dev/hda3
label=Linux
read-only
--snip--
lilo -v then reports:
--snip--
LILO version 19, Copyright 1992-1996 Werner Almesberger
Reading boot sector from /dev/hda3
Merging with /boot/boot.b
Boot image: /vmlinuz
Added Linux *
/boot/boot.0303 exists - no backup copy made.
Writing boot sector.
--snip--
But at bootup I still get the "LI" - message. Nice try ;-)

Could this be caused by a geometry mismatch? (I don't know what it
means...)
I don't have ANY problems when booting by floppy (and I'm going too stick
to booting from a floppy, with no problems... :-)
Thanks for your help so far.
