I just got through doing this. My only problem was that after I installed my
drives again and rebooted, LILO got stuck at 'LI' I luckily found a lilo boot
disk, i.e. one that had LILO on it pointed to my boot HD partition, booted up
and reran LILO against my hard drive. I have left all BIOS options as they
came up, and board works fine.
