It seems You did some mistakes on Your first setup!

All those messages point to one fact:
The Kernel you are booting does not fit onto the Hardware.
Do Yourself the favour and reinstall everything completely!

If you produced some valuable data within linux,
use 'tar' to archive it onto good FLOPPIES.

e.g.:
cd /home/me
tar -cvf /dev/fd0 .

Then, reinstall everything from the first step on!
(Don't delete Your DOS-Partition, there is no need for)

3.) lost+found
    This dir exists on every UNIX-Partition and will be used
    by fsck (or even fsck.ext2) if their file-system-check find
    any problem onto that partition, which can't be corrected
    without data losses. Somehow damaged files will be moved to
    lost+found for further manual inspection by the sysadm.
    (It's much more complicated then described, but why bothering
    with facts from deep inside the filesystem ...)

4.) Lilo might be configured wrong. Check file /etc/lilo.conf
    for any partition called 'sd...'. Read /etc/lilo/README
    and adjust any mistaken entry within /etc/lilo.conf.
    run /sbin/lilo afterwards to get the right boot.
    (But, you really should reinstall from the beginning, it's 
    less work!)

greetings, niko
