Please: look at first into /etc/lilo.conf: is there a line "boot=" and
a line "root="? Then check the images at the end of this file. Are there
images? And to which files the images will be linked?

The next step could be: download and install the newest lilo package of
Ubuntu (upstream version 24.1) which should solve many problems with
liloconfig. Then try again liloconfig.

Please give me feedback about your results.

Have a nice day.
