I have seen similar behaviour with a certain brand of machine,
using the Upstream Vendor's release.

The fix in our case was to download and compile up Lilo as an RPM.
Include this in your install media (NFS share).
Then at the end of the install process, in the post-install script
rpm install lilo, create a good /etc/lilo.conf
and run lilo.


You won't find an 'official' Lilo anywhere for the Upstream Vendor's
release. Well worth rolling your own if you come across this problem.
Lilo almost always works.
