That is true, I installed lilo to the root and not to the MBR. I was unsure of which one to install it too, but root sounded good. I am trying to do what you said and change the lilo config files. It is sort of difficult because I am not used to all the commands. So I am going to give this another 30min and if I can't figure it out, I'll reformat and reinstall! Haha, whatever works right? But thank you both for your help, and I'll let you know how it goes.

Update: I had to reformat and reinstall because I was having some problems at the prompt. But I installed well and is now working. I am definitely going to have some more questions in the future, because right now its taking the longest time to boot up... haha. Thanks for the help everyone.

MODS. This thread can now be closed/solved. (I don't know if you guys do that here)
