Following the above instructions:
/sbin/lilo -v

Produced this response:
"bash: /sbin/lilo: No such file or directory"

So, I searched around and found lilo here: /mnt/sbin/lilo
Then I tried /mnt/sbin/lilo -v
and lilo ran, but gave this response:

"/etc/lilo.conf: No such file or directory.

the desired file is here: /mnt/etc/lilo.conf

but what syntax must I use to get this to work?
