Updating myself! So, I was using Timo's Linux rescue disc to boot up and
try and fix things (I've used it alot over the last few years for various
reasons), but I decided to boot back up with the GPartEd disc and it was
still seeing the partitions just fine, so I was kinda stumped. Then I saw
the little "Terminal" icon at the bottom of the screen, so I fired up fdisk
in that terminal and it saw the drive just fine! I mounted/chrooted/etc and
got Lilo unconfused, and now everything's booting fine! Perhaps the version
of fdisk on the copy of Timo's rescue disc I have was not what it needed to
be or something? At any rate, all's well!
