Default LILO: timespamt mismatch

Successfully upgraded to Slack 11.0. Changed out my mobo and PSU, and
received the above error message for my trouble. Booting off of the
standard sata.i kernel. At the moment, booting off of the install
disk, but I'd love to resolve this. Tried setting the system clock a
few hours into the furture, I've run lilo -v and even lilo -U a few
times, with no joy. And so, I turn it over to the AOLS braintrust.
What say you?

Did you check the time in your BIOS?

Did you try a google search and try out some of the suggestions from the
search results? The results mention other distros but should be
distro-neutral.

Yes, I've checked my system time. My machine also is a NTP server for
my network, so upon boot, it checks its time from random time server du
jour, and sets the system clock (not that I haven't tried setting it
manually nine ways til Sunday).

Yes, I've Googled. I wouldn't step foot into AOLS until I've exhausted
all other possibilities.

Unless you tell us what you done exhausting the other possibilities you
will only get the same suggestions again here. Those suggestions might be
things like trying to flash a new BIOS or removing a second HD.

Do you have more than one HD in the machine? Does the machine boot if you
remove the second HD? I have seen this problem on a machine which had a
second HD which was contaned a copy of the first HD (done with dd). In
some way lilo got confused, maybe by two HDs having some kind of timestamp
which was identical.
