lilo certainly can be installed at the beginnng of an ext2 partition. However, I've discounted this because fdisk /mbr should remove any code causing the jump to any other partition. Long Shot --- have you checked the bootable flags with (preferably linux) fdisk? The boot code that DOS fdisk installs may well observe these, and if set to an old Linux partition, might attempt to jump there, causing a lilo boot. Mx.
