Here is mine:

menu-scheme=Wb
boot = /dev/sda  #<- This is your MBR
prompt
#boot=/devices/discs/disc0/disc
map = /boot/System.map    #<- System.map is copied from /usr/src/linux after kernel comp.
#compact        # faster, but won't work on all systems.
lba32
#if lba32 do not work, use linear
#linear
delay = 50
vga = normal    # Normal VGA console                               
# End LILO global section
# Linux bootable partition config begins
        image = /boot/vmlinuz  #<- kernel image
        root = /dev/sda4   #<- your '/' partition
        label = Gentoo
        read-only # read-only for checking
# Linux bootable partition config ends
# DOS bootable partition config begins
        other = /dev/sda1
        label = Windows
# DOS bootable partition config ends  

Don't forget to run /sbin/lilo after editing this file.

For more info, RTFM ;o)
