this is my problem with lilo, upon booting the system prints on the screen:

LILO
!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~^?boot:

if i hit `enter`, or write `Linux`; it prints:

Loading Linux...........

but it hangs there, it doesn`t happen anyting else.
the system is well, i can boot with a start diskette without any problem.
any advice is welcomed, as i said, i can boot the system, but i sincerely don`t understand/remeber what might i have done to lilo to start working this way.

ps: all the chars that i posted are relative, but i hope you`ll get the idea...
