I just went through this myself...first off, you need to recompile your Nvidia driver if you haven't already (you probably got/will get a "screens not found" error out of XFree86 if you don't).
Second, you may very well have removed VESA Frame buffer support, which is what allows the VGA modes from the console. VGA=771 requires that to display. If you can edit your lilo.conf, change the uncommented VGA line to VGA=6 and reboot, see if you get a console. You should get something....let us know how it goes.
