Mike,
You should still be able to install LILO to the master drive on
your first IDE even if it is FAT32. I've been able to do it and
I have FAT32 partitions. So all I can say is that your error
is not because you can't install LILO to the boot record of a
drive containing FAT32. Are you sure you are choosing
/dev/hda1 as the device to install LILO to?
