what is the contents of your lilo.conf?
it should be
boot=/dev/hda
lba32
...
image=/boot/vmlinuz-blah
label=GoodieBox
root=/dev/hda1 or whatever is / on your disk
other = /dev/hdb
label=BadWin98Box

what is the bios set for ??
- hd0 means the first hard disk, not necessarily /dev/hda
- your bios should be set for in this order
hd1 ( when both removable master and slave )
- lilo is on the windows disks
hd0 ( removable master --OR-- just slave )
- lilo is on the removable disk
