Stopping after LI is usually due to a disk geometry problem.  I had that same 
problem and I found it was because the default LILO uses the LBA32 option and 
my BIOS does not support that. In /etc/lilo.conf, comment out the line 
"lba32", put in a line that simply reads "linear". Run LILO and try to boot 
again.

Keep your boot floppy handy, just in case!
