The RedHat installation CD's are bootable and offer a 
"rescue" option that mounts your local drives to
something like "/sysimage".  It should be possible to
install lilo that way (either via lilo -R /sysimage/etc... 
or chroot /sysimage /sbin/lilo).

Reinstalling the os should only be necessary as a last 
resort.
