I don't see too much wrong with the lilo.conf there, but there appears 
to be garbage characters in both your prompt and in those filenames.... 
  was there something funky with your paste or are those brackets, and 
0's actually there? 

If you are having problems with your devices having moved, did you 
enable devfs support whereas before you didn't have it? That makes 
things go way wonky (voice of experience).
