DVD playback...xine should work, it has a DVD button.

CD burning: I use K3B. However, I have had some problems with k3b on my Knoppix 3.4 install which I was not able to solve. I switched to Kanotix and have not had any problems. IMHO this is the one big improvement kanotix has over knoppix...fewer buggy apps.

Lilo: The file to edit is /etc/lilo.conf. To change the default there is a line 'default=XXX'. To change the names which appear on the boot just change the 'label=XXX' line. To edit out a line just put a # as the first character in the line. You must be root to edit this file; from command line 'kdesu kate /etc/lilo.conf' will get you into kate (very good editor) as root but you must set a root password first, kdesu will need one. 'sudo passwd' will set root password. You must also run lilo to implement the changes into lilo, kate has a built in terminal panel. Since you will already be root, just type 'lilo'.
