System won't boot, "lilo.conf" problem

[CJ <ttm22@drexel.edu>]

Hi,

	I really need some (PLEASE). After I successfully installed the base 
system, I configured the /etc/lilo.conf file and when I reboot, my sytem 
displays this :     
                 LI....   
and then freezes. Hopefully someone can help me. 

Now I will give you a description of what I am trying to do so you can 
understand my problem better.

	I have two hard drives and I'll call them "/dev/hda" and "/dev/hdc". 
/dev/hda is a "master" on the first IDE chain and /dev/hdc is also a "master" 
but on the second IDE chain. I have DOS/win95 on /dev/hda and just 
installed the base of Linux on /dev/hdc (dedicate only to Linux). 
***When I make the /root partition on /dev/hdc, I make it bootable***
	
This is what I want to do:
	I want to have a choice to of DOS/win95 or Linux when I boot my system

This is what I did, I not sure if it is right or not:
	-run liloconfig
        -said "YES" to the first question to install a partition boot 
		record on /dev/hdc. 
        -said "NO" to making a master boot record on my second drive /dev/hdc
 		cuz to want to boot from /dev/hda and I assume that it is 
 		right not making a mbr on /dev/hdc.
  	-said "NO" to the third question, not making my /dev/hdc active.

        Now I go in "/etc/lilo.conf" and fix it by hand and this is what 
it looks like: (I delete the original data that lilo provided such as 
compact, install=/boot/boot.b, ....etc)
	
      	boot=/dev/hda
	delay=40
      
        other=/dev/hda1
          label=windows
          table=/dev/hda
     	
       	image=/vmlinuz
          root=/dev/hdc2   #hdc2 is my root partition
          label-Linux
          read-only

This is the exact data in this file.
I save this file and type the command "lilo" and I get this :
	Added windows *
	Added Linux
Then I reboot....
and I system freezes at    LI.... 


Now I can't even boot DOS/win95 because I can't get my /etc/lilo.conf to 
work. I tried to remove the file "boot.0300" in the /boot dir on 
/dev/hdc2 but that doesn't work . I also  have the file "boot.0613" or 
something like that in my /boot dir but I didn't delete(I am not sure 
what it is).

If you have the time, please help, THANKS!
