OK, as I've found the answer myself, let me post the solution here for
future reference:
[ Install the GRUB boot files in [/dev/hdc1]/boot/grub ]
/sbin/grub --batch <<- EOT 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null
root (hd1,0)
install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd1) /boot/grub/stage2
EOT
Now, LILO is gone on my system... :)
Later,
Ivan
