Hi,
Take a look at my /etc/lilo.conf. It does all that you ask for.
I have the current and an older kernel on /dev/hda1, a rescue installation
on /dev/hdc9 and mousedriver95 on /dev/hda2.
I can boot all of those just fine with the /etc/lilo.conf below.
I also have a little menu text in /boot/message.lilo that is displayed at
boot time, I've included it as well. It's in dutch though. ;-)
Good luck,
Joost
