configuring lilo

[rlmiz2]

I used apt-get install lilo and the install was successful, but I received a message. I've read the HOWTO but I am still not quite sure what would be my next step

I can't find the liloconfig to run. Does run and execute mean the same thing?

run liloconfig(8) when you complete this process and execute /sbin/lilo

I would execute /sbin/ lilo by using the following command?
./lilo

i ran /etc/liloconfig - it appears that i need to edit lilo.conf

below is text output from liloconfig
debian:/etc# liloconfig
LILO, the LInux LOader, sets up your system to boot Linux directly
from your hard disk, without the need for a boot floppy.

You already have a LILO configuration in the file /etc/lilo.conf

If you want to use the new LILO boot menu, please take a look to
/usr/share/doc/lilo/examples/conf.sample and choose one of the
bitmaps located on /boot

Checking your /etc/lilo.conf for incompatible options...

Install a boot block using your current LILO configuration? [Yes]

WARNING: Even if lilo runs successfully, see /usr/share/doc/lilo/INCOMPAT.gz
for changes in the usage of the /etc/lilo.conf file.
If needed: edit /etc/lilo.conf and rerun '/sbin/lilo -v'
