Danny,
FAT32 itself did not change from Win98b to Win98. Linux can read/write
it with no problem provided of course that vfat support is compiled into
the kernel. A manually executed mount command would look the same as for
FAT16 - something like this:
mount -t vfat /dev/hdxx /mnt

Not a lilo expert but I think that you need boot=/dev/hda instead of
