/etc/fstab has nothing to do with booting; its job is to tabulate which
file systems are to be mounted when the system goes multi-user.
The file you need to amend is /etc/lilo.conf; if you don't know how,
post the device and partition you want to boot from (/dev/hde1?).
Remember to rerun lilo after changing the lilo.conf file.
