You may use

        Insert -> Page numbering -> Renumber this page

to change the number of the page (where you put the marker).
Just put it at the start of chapter one.
You may also use

        Insert -> Page numbering -> Page number text

to change the macro which displays the number. The macro takes zero arguments 
and
you may use the environment variable "page-nr" to retrieve the current page 
number.
This allows you for instance to use roman numbers for the table of contents.

Best wishes, Joris
