  Hi.  I've ported this lilo patch already, you may find it in
the lilo-22.3.4.ebuild.  Install that and try your artwork,
see if it works ok?

  I still use this version currently, as I've not gotten a
proper patch for the latest lilo, though there's a 
contributed one in my buglist; but apparently there's a 
problem with it.

  The thing with grub is, that there's already a VGA16 patch
that I've put in, and it's different from the stuff that
SuSE does to grub.  Some people are attached to it now
as they've cooked up artwork/bootsplashes for it.  It would
take somebody to look into merging it; but I won't as I
don't use grub ;)

          Donny.
