OK, mounted newrootpartition newroot
Did a cp -x /  newroot
Successful so far, elementary

Edited newroot/etc/fstab and newroot/etc/lilo.conf to point root to 
newrootpartition (by uuid)

mount --bind /dev newroot/dev
mount --bind /proc newroot/proc
as instructed in various posts, to enable lilo to run.

chroot newroot
lilo ...

Looked successful. Umounted everything and reboot.

Get boot menu (congratulations !?).
Chose the kernel.

Now got that lvm not ready business.. I usually get this once and then 
normally boot up. Now getting it over and again. BTW, if I control/C a few 
times, I end up inside initramfs>.

Put up the live DVD, regenerated the initramfs, but ... no change.
Put up the live DVD, mounted the old root partition,  went through the lilo 
process and back up.

So ... how do I do this??
