Try

linux hda=1558,240,64

The first argument is the kernel you want to boot for a list of names type ?
at the lilo
prompt

I went to the below mentioned page and tried hda=1558,240,64 at the boot
prompt but it keeps telling me that it cannot find the image named
....(I can't remember the exact message).  Because of the video problem
I mentioned earlier, I want to be in text mode, so I tried:
text hda=1558,240,64
and although I do start the install, I still get the message that it can
not read the partition data and there is no hda listed in /dev.

Can someone tell me what exactly I should be tying at the boot: prompt?

THanks,

-Eric
