Booting from the Knoppix 3.8.1 CD and supplying the boot-string "acpi=off screen=1280x1024 depth=24", the basic Knoppix desktop appears on my screen.
After remounting / as rw, editing /etc/lilo.conf to point /dev/hda1 and saving, the problems begin!

Incompatible libdevmapper 1.00.20-ioctl (2005-01-06)(compat) and kernel driver
Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure.
Name change: '/dev/cloop0' -> '/dev/cloop'
Fatal: Trying to map files from unnamed device 0x000e (NFS/RAID mirror down ?)
Something is either wrong with remount / (root) as read-write or my /etc/lilo.conf file. How can I open the lilo.conf file which was installed on /hda1? This new virtual filesystem is difficult to learn. Any and all help is most appreciated!
