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,
