The safe install (or automatic) uses a very long delay. The trick without going through the whole thing again is to use a text editor and edit /etc/lilo.conf. There will be a line saying "delay=1000" or some number. The delay is in tenths of seconds apparently, as when I had selected a 5 second delay, it put in delay 50. Anyway, if you just want to boot without any pause at all, you could use 0 as the delay value. I suggest a short pause in case you have to type something. For example, hold down the shift key during the pause and type "Linux single" and you would boot in single user mode which is designed for maintenance because it doesn't run most of the startup scripts and leaves networking off. Even more extreme is "Linux emergency" which basically drops you at a shell prompt without running anything but the bare bones. So, a 5 second delay is about right for me. By the way, after editing the configuration file, you would type "lilo" to reinstall Lilo. The other option is to just type liloconfig and you would start over with the interactive Lilo setup. Good luck.
