Thank you everybody for your help.

I found my mistake.

I never used Lilo before on a hard disk and on this computer the creation
of a boot floppy failed consistently so I used another computer's vmlinuz
in combination with loadlin to reboot.

As an act of desperation, I made the hard disk bootable (it has a NT
system on the first partition and I still have to figure out how to be
able to boot NT after this) and there was no problems when I rebooted
again.

      be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become  
      angry, for man's anger does not bring about the   
      righteous life that God desires."  James 1:19,20
