What does your lilo.conf look like?  Have you tried the "linear" option.
Be sure to rerun lilo if you change anything.

Are you using some sort of multi-boot manager (system commander or
somesuch) or are you jumping directly to lilo from the MBR?

This can't be right.  Something is very wrong. 

I'd like to see the lilo config, fdisk output, as well as the boot
messages.
