LILO problems,no boot, can I use Knoppix rescue to fix?



Repost with modifications, first one did make
it to the list:

I did an aptitude and did an update,
and a few "g" keystrokes to download and install.
Aptitude said something like: 
Warning, it was deleting modules for old
version of kernel.  
Now the system won't reboot.
THe screen says:
LILO 22.5.6.1 Loading Linux ........................
...........
This is from a Knoppix CD hard disk install.

Any way, I can reboot using the Knoppix CD
as a rescue disk 
and then edit /mnt/hda1/etc/lilo.conf .
But when I run lilo, it
says:
# sudo su
# lilo -C /mnt/hda1/etc/lilo.conf
Fatal. Sorry, don't know how to handle device 0xf000

How can I use Knoppix to fix LILO boot?
